How to make a Sri Lanka passport photo in 3 steps

Upload any photo of yourself, and the tool handles the entire Sri Lanka passport spec pipeline — background removal, colour swap, spec-exact crop, file-size compression — in one pass.

Upload any photo of yourself

Use your phone or webcam against any background — a plain wall, a cluttered room, an office. The tool segments you from whatever is behind you, so you don't need a plain white backdrop before shooting.

Background is removed and replaced

The AI detects your face and body, removes the original background, and composites you onto the plain white required for Sri Lanka passport applications. Hair and clothing edges are preserved.

Auto-crop to 35×45mm and download

Your face is auto-positioned within the 35×45mm frame at 300 DPI, and the output JPEG stays under 240 KB. Drag the crop box to fine-tune the position if needed.

Understanding the Sri Lanka passport spec

Sri Lanka passport applications require a 35×45mm (1.38×1.77 inches) color photograph on a plain white background at 300 DPI. Photos that do not match these dimensions, background color, or file size are rejected at the document-verification step — getting it right the first time avoids the delay and cost of resubmission.

Sri Lanka passport photo FAQ

What size is a Sri Lanka passport photo?

35×45mm (1.38×1.77 inches) at 300 DPI, on a plain white background. The head must measure 30-36mm from chin to the top of the head.

What background color does Sri Lanka require for passport photos?

Plain white. Photos on the wrong background — cream, beige, colored, or textured — are the most common reason for rejection. This tool automatically replaces your background with the correct one.

Can I take a Sri Lanka passport photo with my phone?

Yes. Modern phone cameras produce more than enough resolution for the 35×45mm output. What matters is even lighting (no harsh shadows on your face), a straight-on angle, and a neutral expression. This tool handles the background and sizing.

What is the file size limit for Sri Lanka passport photo uploads?

Most Sri Lanka portals accept files up to 240 KB. This tool automatically compresses the output JPEG to stay under that limit while preserving the required 300 DPI resolution. If your specific portal has a stricter cap, use our Image Compressor to reduce further.

Is my uploaded photo saved on your servers?

No. Your photo is processed in memory and never stored on disk. The AI background removal runs server-side (the model is too large for a browser), but the input image is discarded immediately after processing. Nothing is logged, saved, or shared.

Can I print the Sri Lanka passport photo at home?

Yes. The output is a 300 DPI JPEG at exactly 35×45mm, so any inkjet or laser printer produces the correct physical size when you print at 100% scale (not "fit to page"). Use the 4×6 print sheet option to get multiple copies on one sheet of photo paper.

Do I need to sign up or pay?

No sign-up required for basic use. Guests get 2 photos per day; free accounts get 3 per day. For higher volume, Pro plans unlock unlimited photos.

What if the background removal is not perfect?

The AI handles hair, clothing edges, and skin tones well for the vast majority of photos. If you see an edge artifact, try re-uploading with better lighting — indirect natural light from a window works best. You can also skip the background swap and crop only.
