Spain Passport Photo at Home

How to create your photo

1. Take a recent, clear photo. Stand 1.2 m (4 ft) from a plain wall in soft, even daylight. Face the camera with a neutral expression, eyes open, and remove glasses, hats, or filters.
2. Open the Spain Passport Photo Maker (26×32 mm) tool. Open the upload form on this page and select your photo from your phone or computer. Our tool measures face geometry against the official Spain Passport Photo Maker (26×32 mm) template.
3. Auto-crop and clean the background. We crop the head to 26 mm × 32 mm with biometric framing and replace the background with a white fill if required.
4. Download the print-ready file or 4×6 sheet. Download a 307 × 378 px JPEG for online submissions, or a 4x6 sheet with 15 photos to print at home or a pharmacy.

Precise crop for Spanish police stations.
