Do not confuse it with another Belize document
Belize does not use one frame for everything. This page is about passport — 51 × 51 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes
Fixed for free
- Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain white background.
- Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
- Frame. Exactly 51 × 51 mm, by the document’s rules.
- A light shadow on one side of the face. Gently brightened.
- File and print sheet. A file to the document’s rules and a 10 × 15 or A4 sheet to print.
What can't be fixed for free, AI correction fixes
- Hard shadows and uneven light on the face.
- A smile, raised brows or a half-open mouth. Cropping keeps the face it was given.
- Too few pixels. If the original is smaller than 602 × 602 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
- Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.
Glasses in the frame. This document does not accept them at all — take them off and shoot again.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
Belize-specific things to know
- Belize asks for a square 2 × 2 inch photograph (51 × 51 mm) with both ears showing — not the 35 × 45 mm ICAO size.
- Black-and-white photographs are not acceptable, the chest must be covered and clothing must contrast with the white background.
- Glasses, tinted shades and sunglasses are all ruled out — the page does not make an exception for prescription glasses.

What the source confirms
- Belize Ministry of Immigration, «Passport Photo Specifications»: one photo is needed when you renew or apply for a new passport; the actual photo size is 2 inches × 2 inches, with the head a maximum of 80 % of the photo (1.41 inches) and a minimum of 70 % (1.25 inches); the photo must be less than 6 months old.
- Same page, the face: a close-up of the head and top of the shoulders; the face looks directly at the camera with both ears showing and takes up 70–80 % of the photo in length; the head is centred in the actual picture with a clear gap around the sides and top (hair included); open eyes (no squinting), mouth closed, a neutral expression (no smiling or frowning); no hair across the face or eyes; minimal facial jewellery that does not reflect light or distract, except for religious, cultural or medical justification; no glasses, tinted shades or sunglasses.
- Same page, quality: in focus, no red eye and no reflected light on the face; a true image not altered in any way; adequate brightness and contrast; high-quality colour showing natural skin tones; no sleeveless shirts or tank tops and the chest covered; no camouflage tops, military or government uniforms; no head coverings except for religious, cultural or medical justification; black-and-white photos are not acceptable.
- Same page, background and paper: the background must be white; the lighting uniform with no shadows or reflections on the face or the background; a contrast between the image and the background (no white shirt on a white background); printed on high-quality paper with high resolution.
