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.
- 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.
- 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
Rwanda-specific things to know
- Rwanda names only the white background and the file limit — JPG at 500 KB — for the visa photo; there is no millimetre size on the pages read.
- The attachments are three separate files with the same 500 KB limit: the photo as JPG, the passport page and the letter as PDF.
- The attachments differ by visa type, and a free visa goes straight to the immigration system without a payment step.
Where these numbers come from

What the source confirms
- IremboGov support, «How to Apply for a Visa on IremboGov»: attachments differ depending on the visa type; common attachments are the application letter, a copy of the passport biodata page and a photo with a white background; they should be in these formats and sizes — a scanned photo with a white background (JPG, 500 KB), a scanned copy of the passport biodata page (PDF, 500 KB), a scanned application letter and other certificates (PDF, 500 KB).
- Same article, the application steps: choose the visa category — transit visas or visitor visas — attach all the required documents in the right format and size, with the photo with a white background in JPG of 500 KB, verify the information, enter a phone number or e-mail address and submit; if the visa applied for is free of charge the application is sent immediately to the DGIE system for processing, otherwise it is paid for.
- IremboGov support, «Frequently Asked Questions About Visa Application»: the size of attachments allowed is a photo with a white background (JPG, 500 KB), a copy of the passport biodata page (PDF, 500 KB) and an application letter and other certificates (PDF, 500 KB).
