Important: photographer stamp
For printed Canadian passport photos, the photographer must write or stamp the date and the studio's name and address on the back of one photo, and your guarantor signs it (not needed for adult renewals). A home-printed photo cannot carry a studio stamp, so use this tool to check framing and for other documents, or ask a studio whether it can print your file.
How to take the photo at home
- Stand about 1–1.5 m from the camera, with the camera at eye level. Ask someone else to take it or use a timer: selfies distort the face.
- Face a window or use two soft lights so there are no shadows on your face. The background does not matter: the AI replaces it.
- Look straight at the camera with a neutral expression, mouth closed and both eyes open. Push hair away from your eyes.
- Wear normal clothes in a colour that contrasts with the background (avoid white for white backgrounds).
Printing
Download the print sheet and print it at 100% / actual size (turn off “fit to page”) on glossy or matte photo paper, at home or at a photo kiosk. A 4×6 in (10×15 cm) print costs a few cents and holds several photos.
