Common Mistakes to Avoid

Shadows on Face

DMSU officials reject photos with any shadow on the face, neck, or background. Use front-facing diffused light and stand about 50cm away from the wall to eliminate wall shadows.

Wrong Background Shade

Ukraine requires a pure white background — not cream, not light gray. Even slightly yellowish lighting can tint the background and lead to rejection. Our tool ensures a clean white every time.

Red Eye Effect

Flash photography often causes red-eye, an automatic rejection. Stick to natural daylight or soft room lighting. If using flash, turn on the anti-red-eye mode on your camera.

Tilted Head

Your head must be perfectly straight — not tilted to any side. Ukrainian biometric standards require both ears to be equally visible and both eyes at the same horizontal level.

Heavy Makeup or Filters

No beauty filters, no heavy contouring. The photo must accurately represent your natural appearance. Phone beautification features must be turned off before taking the shot.

Outdated Photo

Ukrainian passport photos must be taken within the last 6 months. If your hairstyle, weight, or facial features have changed noticeably, you need a new one.

How to Take a Perfect Ukrainian Passport Photo

📸

1. Take Your Photo

Stand in front of a white wall with good, even lighting. Look straight at the camera, keep a neutral expression, and make sure no hair covers your forehead or ears.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is a Ukrainian passport photo?
The official size is 35mm × 45mm. The face from chin to crown should occupy about 70-80% of the frame height. Photos must be printed at 600 DPI on matte photo paper.
Can I use a phone camera for my Ukrainian passport photo?
Absolutely. Any smartphone from the last 5 years has more than enough resolution. Use your rear camera for the sharpest result, hold the phone at eye level, and avoid using zoom. Our tool handles the rest.
Are glasses allowed in Ukrainian passport photos?
Since 2021, it's recommended to remove glasses entirely for Ukrainian biometric documents. If you must wear them for medical reasons, the frames cannot cover any part of your eyes and there must be zero glare on the lenses.
Where do I submit my Ukrainian passport photo?
You submit photos at your local DMSU (State Migration Service) center or CNAP administrative service center. For Ukrainians abroad, photos are submitted at the nearest Ukrainian consulate or embassy. Some centers also accept digital uploads.
Is this service really free?
Yes, 100% free. No registration, no watermarks, no hidden fees. We process your photo right in your browser — nothing gets uploaded to a server. Photo studios in Ukraine charge 50-150 UAH for the same thing.
