Vietnam Visa Photo Requirements

Last updated: July 21, 2026

Vietnam's native visa photo spec uses a larger 40×60 mm format than most other countries. Vietnam also accepts the US 2×2 inch format as an alternative — if your application channel asks for that style instead, use our US Passport & Visa preset.

Photo Size

Requirement
Physical (print)40 × 60 mm (or 2 × 2 in / 51 × 51 mm as an accepted alternative)
Digital (upload)472 × 709 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 (including hair) should be approximately 67% of the photo's height — about 40 mm on a 60 mm-tall print.

Background Color

Vietnam requires a plain white background.

Why do print and digital sizes look different? They're the same physical spec expressed in two units — see our Physical vs. Digital Photo Size guide for how the conversion works.
