50 × 70 mm Passport Photo Size — Countries & Specifications
50 × 70 mm (1.97″ × 2.76″, 591 × 827 px at 300 DPI). 50 × 70 mm is the larger passport-photo size used by Canada and Brazil — bigger than both the international 35 × 45 mm standard and the US 51 × 51 mm. Canada additionally requires the photographer's name, address, and date taken on the back of one print, a requirement no other country enforces.
