What size is a Saudi Arabia passport photo?

Saudi Arabian passport photos must be 40mm wide by 60mm tall with a plain white background.

Is the Iqama photo the same size as the passport photo?

Yes. Iqama (residence permit), Saudi passport, and most Ministry of Interior applications all use the 40×60mm format.

Can I use this for Absher or IQAMA renewal?

Yes. Photo uploads on the Absher platform and IQAMA renewal applications require a 40×60mm photo with a white background.

No. Glasses are not permitted in Saudi official ID photos.

What is the face oval guide?

The oval overlay shows the ideal face position in the frame. Zoom in or out until your face fits inside the oval — this ensures your face occupies the correct proportion of the photo.

What does Center Face do?

It automatically detects your face and centers the frame around it. Click it after uploading for the best starting position.

What does Straighten do?

It detects the angle of your eyes and rotates the image so they are perfectly level — useful for photos taken at a slight tilt.
