Canadian Passport Photo Requirements (50x70 mm)
Canadian passport photos have unique dimensions and strict rules. The photo must measure exactly 50 mm wide by 70 mm high (2 inches wide by 2 3/4 inches high). The head size from chin to crown (natural top of head) must be between 31 mm and 36 mm. The background must be plain white or a very light, uniform colour.
The applicant must display a neutral facial expression: eyes open and looking directly at the camera, mouth closed, and no smiling. Uniforms are not permitted, and head coverings are only allowed for religious or medical reasons, provided they do not cast shadows on the face.
Canadian Photo Back Stamp Requirement
A critical requirement for Canadian passport photos is that one photo must bear the date the photo was taken, plus the name and complete address of the photographer or photo studio. This must be printed or stamped on the back of the photo.
When using PhotoTools.org to layout your Canadian passport photo sheet, print the file on matte or semi-gloss photo paper so that the back can be easily stamped, written on, or signed by a guarantor if required. Always print at 100% scale without any auto-scaling.
