Frequently asked questions
What is the UK passport photo size?
600 × 750 pixels, between 50–2000 KB, in JPG format. Print size 35 × 45 mm. Check the current UK passport notification before you submit, because sizes can change each year.
How do I reduce my UK passport photo to 2000 KB?
Add the photo above, adjust the frame and download. PixFit sets the pixels and finds the JPG quality that lands inside 50–2000 KB.
Is my photo uploaded to a server?
No. Resizing and compression happen in your browser. The file stays on your phone or computer.
Why does the UK passport portal reject my photo?
Usually the file is above 2000 KB or below 50 KB, the pixels are wrong, or it is not a JPG. PixFit fixes all three and shows a green ACCEPTED stamp when the file is inside the range.
What if the official size changes?
PixFit re-checks UK passport notifications and shows the last verified date on this page. If your notification differs, use Resize image and enter its numbers.
