About Japan Passport photos
A Japan Passport photo must be 35 × 45 mm with your face centred, a neutral expression and a plain light background. FileTinker crops to that exact ratio and exports at 413 × 531 px and 300 DPI so it prints at the right physical size.
Everything runs in your browser, so your photo stays private. If your country isn't listed, the main passport-photo tool covers more sizes — and you can always crop here, then print several copies on one 6 × 4 in photo at home or at a kiosk.
Japanese passport photos are 35 × 45 mm with the head about 34 mm (± 2 mm) from chin to crown, taken within the last six months. Japanese guidance is notably strict about even, shadow-free lighting on both the face and the background.
Frequently asked questions
What size is a Japan Passport photo?
A Japan Passport photo is 35 × 45 mm. FileTinker outputs it at exactly 413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI, which is the print resolution most authorities and photo labs expect.
What background colour will it have?
White by default — or pick off-white, light grey, light blue or a custom colour. Click Remove background in the tool first (the colour fills transparent areas); or take the photo against a plain light wall and keep your head and shoulders inside the oval guide.
Can I print it or upload it?
Yes. The 413 × 531 px, 300 DPI JPEG is sized for both — print it at 35 × 45 mm, or upload it wherever a digital Japan Passport photo is required.
Is my photo uploaded?
No. The photo is cropped and resized entirely in your browser; it never leaves your device.
How recent does a Japanese passport photo have to be?
Within six months of the application. It also needs the exact 35 × 45 mm frame with the head centred at roughly 34 mm tall, no shadows, and a plain light background — the oval guide on this page positions those proportions for you.
