Crop a photo to 40 × 60 mm — Vietnam visa
Upload a photo — the frame is already set for a Vietnam visa. Ready to print or upload.
Upload your photo
The document is already selected — the frame is locked to 40 × 60 mm. Drag the photo inside the frame; the shape cannot be broken.
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 the photo you want to resize.
- Pick the country and document — the exact size and head ratio come from that profile.
- Download the result — cropped, resized and face-aligned entirely in your browser.

| Glasses | Glasses prohibited. |
What these millimetres work out to
- Against the European 35 × 45 mm standard this frame is 1.14 times as wide, 1.33 times as tall and 1.52 times the area — a photo cut for one of the two cannot be reused for the other.
Do not confuse it with another Vietnam document
Vietnam does not use one frame for everything. This page is about visa — 40 × 60 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.
- passport 51 × 51 mm
- permanent residence card 20 × 30 mm
- temporary residence card 20 × 30 mm
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.
- Glasses in the frame. This document does not accept them at all — take them off 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 472 × 709 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
| Reason | Fix |
|---|---|
| Wrong photo size (most ICAO 35×45mm photos rejected) | Use 4×6cm (40×60mm) or US 2×2 inch alternate |
| Digital file above 1024 KB or below 300 DPI | Re-encode within evisa.gov.vn spec |
| Black-and-white photo | Re-shoot in colour |
| Digital enhancements detected | Submit unedited capture |
| Background not plain white or light | Plain uniform — patterns rejected |
Vietnam-specific things to know
- Vietnam uses 40×60mm — larger than ICAO; US 2×2 inch accepted as alternate
- Maximum digital file 1024 KB (1 MB)
- Minimum 300 DPI explicitly required
- Manipulation detection — filters/edits cause rejection

- The Vietnam Immigration Department e-visa portal requires a portrait photograph upload.
- The portal says the portrait photograph must be under 50 KB.
- It separately limits the passport data-page image to under 200 KB.
- The full-text instruction says the photograph should show the applicant straight-looking and without glasses.
- The source is official and document-specific, but it does not publish a print-size biometric matrix.
