Common mistakes in Hong Kong visa photos
- Ordering an off-spec size — the international 35×45 mm default is not 40×50 mm used by Hong Kong, and studios often print the wrong size unless the exact dimensions are stated in millimetres.
- ارتداء قميص يمتزج مع الخلفية عند الكتفين - وهو أمر شائع جدًا في لقطات الاستوديو الآسيوية التي تستخدم الإضاءة المسطحة.
- Uploading a photo whose background reads as off-white or cream once compressed — always verify the RGB values before submitting.
- Submitting a photo older than 6 months even if you look the same — Hong Kong Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Passport & Consular Division matches EXIF dates against the application date when available.
