Baby 2x2 Passport Photo: Exact Size Reference

A baby 2x2 passport photo measures exactly 2 inches by 2 inches — or 51 millimetres square in metric. This pure-square format is used by the US State Department for every passport and visa photo (including infants) and by the Indian government for visa applications. Most other countries use 35x45 mm or country-specific sizes, so if you are applying for a non-US or non-Indian document, double-check the exact specification before printing.

This page focuses on the size and pixel dimensions only — the exact numbers you need to get a print or digital upload right. For the full US baby passport photo requirements (expression, background, how-to walkthrough, FAQ), see our US Baby Passport Photo Requirements guide.

Exact Dimensions

Printed photo

  • Physical size: 2 x 2 inches (51 x 51 millimetres)
  • Aspect ratio: 1:1 (perfectly square)
  • Head height: 1 to 1⅜ inches (25 to 35 mm) from chin to crown
  • Eye line: The baby's eyes should sit in the upper third of the frame, roughly 1⅛ to 1⅜ inches from the bottom of the photo

Digital upload

  • Minimum pixel dimensions: 600 x 600 pixels (at 300 DPI)
  • Recommended pixel dimensions: 1200 x 1200 pixels (gives room for the pixel-level precision that the State Department online upload demands)
  • Format: JPEG
  • File size: Up to 240 KB for State Department online submissions
  • Colour depth: 24-bit, sRGB colour space

Why exact pixel counts matter

The State Department online upload system rejects photos that are off by even a few pixels. A photo that is 599 x 600 or 601 x 599 will fail the upload even if it looks correct. Snap2Pass handles the pixel math automatically — you upload any size, and we output exactly the required dimensions.

Which Documents Use 2 x 2 Inches for Babies?

The 2 x 2 inch square format is used for:

  • US passport (all ages, including newborns)
  • US visa (all ages)
  • US green card and other USCIS documents (all ages)
  • Indian visa (including e-Visa, for all ages)

Most other countries use different sizes. A few examples:

Printing a 2 x 2 Baby Passport Photo

Snap2Pass delivers your final image as a 4 x 6 inch print sheet that contains two 2 x 2 baby photos side by side. You can print the 4 x 6 sheet at any photo kiosk (CVS, Walgreens, Walmart, Costco, UPS) for about $1, then cut along the trim marks.
