Turkey Passport (Pasaport) Photo Requirements

Applies to the Turkish Pasaport and visa photos (TR_passport in our verified spec DB).

  • Size: 50×60mm — much larger than the Schengen-standard 35×45mm
  • Face: 70–80% of the photo height
  • Background: white or off-white, plain
  • Expression: neutral, mouth closed, eyes open (standard biometric practice)
  • Recency: taken within the last 6 months (standard biometric practice — confirm with the consulate)
  • Editing: strict — no retouching, filters or AI alteration of appearance

⚠️ Not the Schengen Size

Turkey uses 50×60mm — do not submit a Schengen 35×45mm photo; it will be rejected for being too small. Crop specifically to 50×60mm with the face filling 70–80% of the height.

⚠️ Strict No-Editing Policy — Where Our Tool Fits

Our verified spec DB marks this entry editingPolicy='strict': the submitted photo must be an unaltered original. Use Retouch.im to check framing and crop to 50×60mm, and submit an unedited original for the application itself. Preview free — HD download $1, 300-DPI print sheet $2.

Common Rejection Reasons

  • Wrong size — submitting a Schengen 35×45mm photo instead of 50×60mm
  • Face too small or too large (must be 70–80% of photo height)
  • Background not white/off-white, or has shadows
  • Edited, filtered or retouched photo
  • Photo older than 6 months
  • Non-neutral expression or tilted head
