China Visa Photo Requirements
Last updated: July 21, 2026
China's visa photo spec uses a taller rectangle than most other countries' 35×45 mm format, so double-check you're using the China-specific size rather than a generic passport-photo size.
Photo Size
| Requirement | |
|---|---|
| Physical (print) | 33 × 48 mm |
| Digital (upload) | 390 × 567 px |
The pixel size above is the exact size our tool outputs, sized to match the official physical spec at 300 DPI — it is not a minimum you need to exceed. We haven't independently verified whether this destination's own upload system also accepts a wider range of sizes, so treat the exact size above as the safe, always-accepted choice.
Head Size
Chin to crown must be 58–69% of the photo's height — about 28–33 mm on a 48 mm-tall print.
Background Color
China requires a white or close-to-white background.
