Russian 3×4 document photo from your phone

Runs on your device · Your file never leaves your device.

The Russian everyday «фото на документы 3×4» — 30 × 40 mm — used for student and work passes, medical books, military ID, driving-school files and countless internal forms asks for a photo of 354 × 472 pixels, 30 × 40 mm at 300 DPI, under 1 MB, plain light background. Photo studios charge to hit numbers that are published for free; this page starts with those numbers already set. Take a selfie or pick a photo from your gallery, drag until your head fills the guide, and download the finished JPEG.

These are the numbers the office asking for it (each states its own file limit; the internal passport has its own 35 × 45 mm rules) commonly ask for; the exact figures could not be confirmed on an official page, so check the portal before you submit. The head should fill about 60–74% of the photo’s height, with a neutral expression, eyes open and nothing covering the face. The background cleaner turns any wall into the plain light background the rules ask for.

Everything runs inside your browser. The photo of your face never touches a server, and the page keeps working with the internet switched off.

Frequently asked questions

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. Cropping, background cleaning and compression all run inside your browser on your own device. Your face never reaches a server, which is why the tool also works with the internet switched off.
Is this the internal passport photo?
No. The Russian internal passport photo is 35 × 45 mm with its own head-size rules and is normally taken at the office. The 3 × 4 cm photo is the everyday one: student and work passes, medical books, military ID, driving school and internal forms.
Does it need a corner («с уголком»)?
Some certificates and internal documents still ask for a photo with the printed corner. This page produces the plain photo; if your office wants the corner, print this file and ask the photo shop to add it, or use the office’s own form.
What size does the russian 3×4 document photo have to be?
354 × 472 pixels, 30 × 40 mm at 300 DPI, under 1 MB, plain light background. These are the numbers the office asking for it (each states its own file limit; the internal passport has its own 35 × 45 mm rules) commonly ask for; the exact figures could not be confirmed on an official page, so check the portal before you submit.
Why do photos get rejected?
Most rejections are technical, not about the face: wrong proportions — the print must be 30 × 40 mm; background not plain and light; head too small in the frame. This page fixes the technical ones automatically.
Can I use a photo taken by a friend?
Yes. A phone photo taken from about a metre away, in daylight, against any plain wall, is the best starting point. Avoid a selfie held too close, which distorts the face.
Can I print it as well as upload it?
Yes. The JPEG carries a 300 DPI stamp so it prints at 30 × 40 mm; choose a print format in the tool to get a sheet ready for the photo shop.
What if my form asks for a different number?
Pick Custom size in the tool and type the pixels and the kilobyte limit the form shows. The same cropping guide and compressor apply.
