Indonesia Passport Photo Requirements

For a Indonesia passport application, the issuing authority requires a photo of 40 × 60 mm with a red background. Head height — measured from chin to crown — must sit between 32 mm and 36 mm, with eyes facing the camera and a neutral expression. The photo should be a recent colour image, sharp and well-lit, with no shadows on the face or background.

Step-by-step

How to Prepare Your Indonesia Passport Photo

  1. STEP 01

    Add a photo

    Open a clear, front-facing photo of your face. JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC all work — everything stays in your browser.

  2. STEP 02

    Crop to Indonesia specs

    Face detection aligns your eyes and crown to the published Indonesia head-height range — adjust manually if needed. Cropping and sizing do not change how you look.

  3. STEP 03

    Check the background

    Confirm a flat, uniform background in the required colour. Optional on-device background replacement is available where the authority permits it.

  4. STEP 04

    Download print-ready files

    Get a single 300 DPI photo and a correctly scaled 4×6 print sheet (multiple copies, cut lines) for any photo print service.

Avoid these mistakes

Reasons Indonesia Passport Photos Get Delayed

  • Wrong dimensions or aspect ratio

    Photos cropped to the wrong size can be rejected. Use the official Indonesia millimetre dimensions, not arbitrary screen pixels.

  • Background not uniform

    Shadows, gradients or coloured walls behind the subject are common problems. The required background colour must be flat and even across the whole frame.

  • Head too small or too large

    Head height (chin to crown) must fall within the official range for Indonesia. Selfies taken too close to the camera often fail this check.

  • Glare, shadows or obscured eyes

    Glare on glasses, dark shadows around the eyes or under the chin, or anything covering the face can cause a rejection. Check the country-specific glasses rule.

  • Non-neutral expression

    Smiling with teeth, raised eyebrows or an open mouth can violate the biometric requirement. Keep a relaxed, neutral expression with the mouth closed.

  • Low resolution or over-compression

    Photos below 300 DPI, with visible JPEG blocks, or printed too small may be rejected. Export at the recommended resolution.

Questions

Indonesia Passport Photo FAQ

What is the size of a Indonesia passport photo?
A Indonesia passport photo must be 40 × 60 mm on a red background, with the head centred and eyes facing the camera. Resolution should be at least 300 DPI for print-ready output.
What background colour is required for a Indonesia passport photo?
Indonesia requires a red background that is flat, uniform and free of shadows. GetShot Passport helps you check the background and, where the authority permits it, replace it on-device.
Can I take a Indonesia passport photo at home?
Take a clear photo in good, even light against a plain background, then use GetShot Passport to crop and resize it to the published Indonesia specification in your browser. You can print it at home or at any photo print service. Always check the official rules before submitting.
Can I wear glasses in my Indonesia passport photo?
Rules on glasses vary. Check the official Indonesia source, and if in doubt remove your glasses so your eyes are fully visible with no glare.
How much does a Indonesia passport photo cost with this tool?
GetShot Passport is free to use — no watermark, no sign-up. You only pay if you choose to print the photo at a local photo print service.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Face detection, background checking and image processing all run inside your browser via WebGPU or WebAssembly. Your photo never leaves your device.
Will my Indonesia passport photo be accepted by the government?
No tool can guarantee acceptance. The output aims to match the official Indonesia specification (40 × 60 mm, red background, correct head height), but acceptance is always at the discretion of the issuing authority — check the live spec on the authority's website before submitting.
