The United States uses a 2 × 2 inch (51 × 51 mm) square photo for passports and many visas and green-card forms. Online passport renewal and the visa form ask for a digital version of the same photo, which is a square image of at least 600 × 600 pixels. This page sets exactly that size, so you only need to frame your face.

Most photo printers and pharmacy kiosks print on 4 × 6 inch paper. Print the 600 × 600 px file at exactly 2 × 2 inches, or use Resize to 4×6 to prepare a full print. Cut carefully along the edges; a crooked trim can also lead to a rejection.

Plain white or off-white, with no shadows or patterns. Use White background first if yours is busy, then come back to crop.
Between 1 inch and 1 3/8 inches from the bottom of the chin to the top of the head, which is roughly 50–69% of the photo's height. Drag the crop box so your face fills that space.
