Make a passport, visa or travel-authorisation photo that meets the official size, head-position and background rules for 21 documents (US passport and DS-160, green card, Schengen, UK visa, the new UK ETA, New Zealand NZeTA, India OCI and e-Visa, China and more). Runs in your browser: your photo is never uploaded, and never retouched. In English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Italian.

I built pixtidy to tell you to retake a bad passport photo, rather than retouch it.

If your wall isn't white enough, it asks you to try again. No background replacement or face retouching. The US State Department says photos must not be altered with software.

It's for people taking their own passport, visa or travel-authorisation photo, with rules for 21 documents.

Everything runs in your browser. MediaPipe face landmarks and segmentation run client-side; your photo is never uploaded or stored.

It measures head height and eye line, checks the background and lighting, and looks for sharpness, open eyes and a closed mouth. Then it crops and compresses the JPEG to the authority's requirements.

Each requirement page cites and archives its official source.

The check is free. The finished file is a one-time purchase: $9.99 in the US, or $12.99 with a 4x6 print sheet, and lower in many other countries. Code PRODUCTHUNT50 takes 50% off until October 10.

I'm the solo developer, and there's no human reviewer. Try the free check, even if you're only curious about the tech.

Would you trust an in-browser checker without a human reviewing the photo?

If your check failed on background or framing, try one retake: stand about half a metre in front of a plain white wall, face a window in daylight, and hold your phone at eye level about 4 ft away. Leave space above your head and around your shoulders.

Checking again is free, and you'll see every requirement marked pass or fail. Your photo stays in your browser, it isn't uploaded.

If you go on to checkout, PRODUCTHUNT50 takes 50% off until October 10.

Disclosure: I built pixtidy, which checks your photo in the browser.
