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.
What this document is
Côte d’Ivoire issues a biometric visa through SNEDAI. Travellers pre-register online; then, in the Visa aéroport area of Abidjan airport, their fingerprints and photo are taken and the Ivorian visa is printed on the spot. The capture is compulsory, and children under 12 give no fingerprints.

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes
Fixed for free
- Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light background without textures or noticeable gradients.
- Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
- Frame. Exactly 35 × 45 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 413 × 531 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
- Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.
Glare on the lenses. Take the glasses off or turn away from the light source and shoot again.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
Ivory Coast-specific things to know
- The size differs by page: 4.5 × 3.5 cm (Embassy in France) against 5 × 7 cm (SNEDAI) — and 50 × 70 mm for diplomatic and service passports.
- The visa application is made online through snedai.com — form, payment and appointment — and the photograph is attached to the form; the pages read give no background colour or head size.
- The photograph must be recent, less than 6 months old, on both embassy pages that state an age.
