Crop a photo to 35 × 45 mm — Brazil visa
Upload a photo — the frame is already set for a Brazil visa. Ready to print or upload.
Upload your photo
The document is already selected — the frame is locked to 35 × 45 mm. Drag the photo inside the frame; the shape cannot be broken.
The photo is cropped in your browser. It is not uploaded to a server and we do not store it.
How to crop it, in three steps
- Upload a photo taken face-on, in even light
- Move the photo until the eyes sit on the guide line and the head fills 70–80%
- Save the 35 × 45 mm result — print it or attach it to the application

What these millimetres work out to
- In a 35 × 45 mm frame a head band of 70–80% is 31.5–36 mm from the chin to the crown.
- Of the 45 mm of height that leaves 9–13.5 mm for the gap above the crown and the space below the chin together.
- At 300 dpi that is a head 372–425 pixels tall — below 372 px the file is too small to print, however good the crop is.
Do not confuse it with another Brazil document
Brazil does not use one frame for everything. This page is about visa — 35 × 45 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

For upload the file must stay under 2 MB KB — after cropping, save as JPEG and check the size.
What cropping will not fix
- A wrong background — cropping does not repaint the wall behind you. This document needs: white
- A shadow on the face or on the wall. Step 1–2 m away from the wall and shoot facing a window.
- Glasses in the frame. This document does not accept them at all — take them off and shoot again.
- 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 413 × 531 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
| Reason | Fix |
|---|---|
| Wrong size for application channel (e-visa 35×45 vs consulate 51×51) | Use the correct format for your submission channel |
| Digital file over 300KB (e-visa limit) | Re-encode at lower quality |
| Photo older than 3 months (strict consulates) | Re-shoot — most Brazilian posts enforce ≤3 months |
| Hair covering ears | Re-shoot with hair tied back |
| Glasses or headgear worn | Re-shoot without |
