A Japanese passport application requires a photo with precise rules, down to the size of the face and the margin above the head. Photos are often sent back, so pick a picture taken straight on and let the tool adjust the position and size of your face automatically.
You can create both the digital file for an online application, for example through Mynaportal, and a print sheet to take to the passport office.
Common problems
- The face is tilted or not facing the camera.
- The background has shadows or a pattern and is not plain.
- A fringe or shadows cover the eyes or the outline of the face.
- Editing or beauty filters make the face look different from reality.
- The photo is old and no longer looks like you.
