What Is a 1×1 Inch Photo?
A 1×1 inch photo is a small square portrait measuring exactly 25.4×25.4mm.
- Physical size: 1×1 inch (25.4×25.4mm), square
- Pixels at 300 DPI: 300×300px (25.4 ÷ 25.4 × 300)
- Pixels at 350 DPI: 350×350px — match the resolution your issuer states
- This is an uncommon size — no passport or visa in our verified 40+ country database uses it
Common Uses
1×1 inch is a niche format. Verified context from our spec database:
- No country passport or visa in our database (40+ countries, 58 international specs) requires exactly 1×1 inch
- Occasionally requested for access badges, membership cards, and ID token/chip enrollment
- Some employers and schools use small square photos in internal ID systems
- Always confirm the exact requirement with the issuing organization before ordering
How to Make One Online
Choose the spec
Open the /id-photo tool and enter a custom 1×1 inch (300×300px) size — or pick the closest preset.
Upload a photo
Take a selfie against a plain wall or upload an existing shot. It is uploaded only when you choose AI processing; use the non-AI workflow for authorities that prohibit editing.
Preview free
AI centers the face, crops to the exact square ratio, and replaces the background. The preview costs nothing.
Download or print
Pay $1 for the exact-pixel HD file, or $2 for a 300-DPI print sheet with multiple copies on one page.
Background & Compliance Notes
- Background: plain white or light-colored is the safe default — our AI replaces it automatically
- Because 1×1 inch issuers vary so widely, the issuer's own rules always prevail over any general guide
- Ask the issuer whether digital editing or background replacement is permitted before submitting
