Visa photo - can I do it myself?
Hi everyone! I need a photo for a visa, and I don't want to go to a studio. I heard that there are strict requirements for t size and format of the files. Has anyone tried taking photo at home and sending it online? How can I be sure that it will pass the check? I am especially concerned about the background and head size, because there are many articles with different rules.

Hi! I recently took a photo for a visa online https://digital-passport-photo.com . There is an option "all country visa photo size", you can choose a country and a standard, and the site adjusts the photo to the necessary requirements. For the USA, for example, it is important: square 600 × 600 px, JPEG, ≤ 240 kB, white background, head 50-69%, eyes 56-69% from the bottom. I took it at home with a phone on a tripod, shot in daylight, without glasses and filters. The site automatically checks the head size and background, and photo turned out perfect. So you can do it without a studio, the main thing is to follow the instructions and check through the website.
