What we fix for free, and what AI fixes
Fixed for free
- Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light background.
- 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
Slovakia-specific things to know
- Slovakia has no single photo rule: each embassy writes its own — two photos of 3.5 × 4.5 cm in Shanghai and Beijing, one photo of at least 3 × 3.5 cm in Ottawa, one photo not attached to the form in Pretoria.
- Colour and a full face are common to every list read, and ICAO standards are named by the embassy in Vienna.
- The number of photos is one or two, so the list of your mission or visa centre decides.
Printing on a single sheet
4 × 2 frames fit on one 10×15 cm sheet — 8 copies from a single print.

Where these numbers come from

What the source confirms
- Slovak Consulate General in Shanghai and Slovak Embassy in Beijing (Archive copies), Schengen visa: the visa application form, completed and signed; two colour photographs of 3.5 × 4.5 cm on a white background; a passport valid for at least three months after the return, with two empty pages and issued within the previous ten years; travel insurance of at least EUR 30,000; copies of the passport data page, the national identity card, the residence permit for China and the hukou; a return flight reservation.
- Slovak Embassy in Ottawa (Archive copy): one recent colour passport-size photograph, minimal size 3 × 3.5 cm (1.2 × 1.4 inch); Slovak Embassy in Pretoria: one passport-size photo in colour, which must not be attached to the application form; Slovak Embassy in Vienna: a full-face colour photo conforming to ICAO standards, fingerprints where applicable (not for children under 12 and persons for whom fingerprinting is physically impossible); Slovak Embassy in The Hague: a recent full-face colour photo (passport size).
- The Slovak visa-centre lists (VFS Global, for Turkey and the UAE) give their own figures again — a biometric photo of 35 × 45 mm on a white background in one, 3 × 3.5 cm or 4 × 6 cm in another — and the Embassy in Canberra gives 3.5 × 4.5 cm; the pages of those centres were not read here.
