Applicants, submit your Application form with the new photo format, as explained below:

2. Use plain light-color background.
3. The photo must be no more than 6-months old.
4. Not tilted picture (portrait style) showing both edges of face clearly.

The photo for each visa applicant submitted must measure:
1. The picture dimensions must be 240 pixels wide by 320 pixels high at least. A smaller picture will be rejected. For instance, a photo being 235 pixels by 320 pixels is not valid.
2. On the other hand, the photo should keep a proportion of 3 x 4 (width x height) within limits. However, 250 x 340 pixels picture would be valid, but not a 290 x 340 pixels one.
3. Finally, the image weight (size in Kbytes) can never be bigger than 120 Kbytes.
1. An image resolution is measured in DPI (dots per inch) and it's mainly used to control printing quality. Therefore, higher resolution means better printing quality.
2. Photos resolution should be 300 dpi, so, when you scan the image, check this parameter carefully. However, bear in mind that the higher the resolution, the bigger the picture.
1. The only image format accepted is JPEG (Join Photograph Expert Group Format). The other image formats such as BMP, TIFF, GIF, PNG, etc. will be rejected (a warning will be shown).
