Spanish Passport Photo Maker

Spanish passport photos require 32x26 mm (32mm wide x 26mm high) with a pure white or light gray background. This is a unique size that differs from the standard 35x45mm used by many countries. The head must measure 22-26 mm from chin to crown, face width 14-18 mm, and eyes must be positioned 20-24 mm from bottom from the bottom of the photo.

Spain uses a smaller format (32x26mm) for their passports and national ID cards (DNI). This size is specific to Spanish documents and is designed to fit the format of their biometric documents. It's important to use the correct size as photos that are too large or small will be rejected.

Spanish passport photos require a pure white or light gray background. The background must be uniform, plain, and without any patterns, shadows, or gradients. Pure white (#FFFFFF) to very light gray is acceptable. No colored backgrounds are permitted.

No, a neutral expression with mouth closed is required. No smiling, showing teeth, frowning, or raised eyebrows. Your mouth must be closed and teeth should not be visible. This is strictly required for biometric facial recognition systems used in Spanish passports.

No, glasses are strictly prohibited in Spanish passport photos. They must be removed entirely with no exceptions. Even if you wear glasses daily, you must remove them for the photo. This is strictly enforced by Spanish authorities.

Yes, both ears should be clearly visible in Spanish passport photos. Hair should be pulled back if necessary to ensure both ears are visible. This is an important requirement for Spanish documents.

Religious or medical head coverings are permitted but must not obscure the face. The face must be fully visible from chin to forehead, and both edges of the face must be visible. Official documentation may be required for religious headwear. The head covering must be plain and not cast shadows on the face.

Passport photos must be taken within the last 6 months to reflect your current appearance. Photos older than 6 months will be rejected by Spanish authorities, even if you haven't changed much.

Yes, with special considerations: infant's eyes must be open, head supported (no hands visible), and they must be looking at the camera. For babies under 6 months, they can be lying on a white or light gray sheet. The same size requirements (32x26mm) apply. No pacifiers, toys, or other objects in the photo. The baby's face must occupy the correct proportions.

Spanish passport and DNI (Documento Nacional de Identidad) photos have the same requirements: 32x26mm, pure white/light gray background, neutral expression, and no glasses. The same photo can be used for both documents as long as it meets the specifications. Our tool creates photos that meet both Spanish passport and DNI requirements.

Spanish passport photos follow the standards set by the CIF (Cuerpo de Inteligencia Fiscal) and DNI requirements. They specify exact dimensions (32x26mm), head size, and technical requirements for biometric compatibility. Spain follows EU passport standards with their unique size format.

Light, natural-looking makeup is acceptable. Heavy makeup, glitter, foundation that significantly changes skin tone, or cosmetics that alter your natural appearance are not permitted. You should look like your everyday self without obvious cosmetics. Avoid shiny or reflective makeup products.
