Do not confuse it with another Kyrgyzstan document
Kyrgyzstan does not use one frame for everything. This page is about international passport — 35 × 45 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

What cropping will not fix
- A wrong background — cropping does not repaint the wall behind you. This document needs: plain light
- A shadow on the face or on the wall. Step 1–2 m away from the wall and shoot facing a window.
- Glare on the lenses. Take the glasses off or turn away from the light source 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

- Kyrgyz biometric passport handling uses authority collection of biometric data at service points.
- The collected biometric data includes a digital facial photograph, fingerprints and signature.
- The facial image rules require a neutral expression, closed mouth and open eyes.
- Headwear is restricted, with narrow exceptions such as religious head covering that does not hide the face.
- Glasses are allowed only under qualifying visual-disability conditions and must not hide the eyes.
What the cropper is still good for here
It will not produce the official photo for this document. It is here for the neighbouring jobs: a portrait for the application form, a copy for your own records, or another Kyrgyzstan document that does accept a photo you prepared yourself.
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
