Requisitos foto visa Schengen

Yes. EC Regulation 2252/2004 sets a single 35 × 45 mm photo standard with ICAO Doc 9303 Part 4 biometric framing for all 27 Schengen Area member states (Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland). One compliant photo works for a visa submitted to any of them.

The Schengen country where you'll spend the most days during the trip. If equal across multiple countries, the first country you'll enter. Each member state's consulate enforces the same photo spec but has its own appointment system — Spain's BLS, France's TLScontact, Germany's iData, Italy's VFS Global. Photos are interchangeable; only the booking portal differs.

Biometric data (fingerprints + the face capture) is taken at the consulate appointment itself using their equipment. The photo you submit with your application is still the standard 35 × 45 mm ICAO-aligned format. As of December 2023, fingerprints are required for almost all Schengen visa applicants 12+ years old; the photo specification has not changed.

The official Foto visa Schengen size is 35 mm × 45 mm (1.38 in × 1.77 in). For digital uploads it equals 413 × 531 px at 300 DPI.

Foto visa Schengen photos must be taken on a plain white background, evenly lit and free of shadows or patterns.

The head should fill 70–80% of the photo height, with eyes positioned in the upper-middle of the frame and a neutral expression looking straight at the camera.
