Do not confuse it with another Thailand document

Thailand does not use one frame for everything. This page is about residence permit — 40 × 60 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

04What we fix

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.
  • Frame. Exactly 40 × 60 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 472 × 709 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
  • Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.

08Source

Where these numbers come from

Source: Immigration Bureau, Royal Thai Police. Last checked against the official page on 19 Aug 2026.

What the source confirms

  • The Immigration Bureau requires half-body, front-facing, hatless photographs of 4 × 6 cm for the certificate of residence.
  • The photographs must be taken within the last six months, and Polaroid photos are not accepted.
  • The source confirms the official immigration photo format, but not a separate residence-card biometric matrix.
  • The page is a broad public-service handbook.
  • This profile uses the confirmed 40 × 60 mm immigration-photo size and keeps unverified head and eye geometry conservative.
  • Form TM.15 asks for five such photographs; form TM.16, used for family members, asks for three.
