The Chinese visa application form accepts a small JPEG portrait with a tight limit on dimensions and file weight, and a white or near-white background. Applicants also usually hand in a separate printed photo. This page prepares the digital file from a recent portrait and centres your face automatically.

Everything runs in your browser, so your photo is never uploaded.

Tips for a visa photo

Use a plain white or near-white background without shadows.
Look straight into the camera with a neutral expression and mouth closed.
Make sure your face is fully visible, with no hair over your eyes.
Use a recent photo; visa centres can refuse an old one.
Keep the file within the size limits and avoid filters.
