What are the German passport photo requirements?
A German passport (Reisepass) photo must be 35×45 mm with a light grey uniform background, head height 32-36 mm from chin to crown. Germany uses the strictest biometric template in the EU — eyes must be on a horizontal line at 50-70% of the photo height, face must be exactly centered, no head tilt allowed. Background must be light grey or white, lighting completely uniform with no shadows. Photo must be taken within 6 months, no glasses, neutral expression. Standard enforced by the Bundesverwaltungsamt (BVA) and all German Bürgerämter.
JPG or PNG, at least 600×600 px, taken in the last six months.
We apply the BVA biometric template — light grey background, exact head position, horizontal eye line.
