Common Honduras visa rejection reasons
- Honduras-specific: Ordering an off-spec size — the international 35×45 mm default is not 35×45 mm used by Honduras, and studios often print the wrong size unless the exact dimensions are stated in millimetres.
- Honduras-specific: Photos taken with a warm-white desk lamp that shifts skin tone away from the reference — Latin American passport offices frequently flag colour cast at the enrolment counter.
- Honduras-specific: Uploading a photo whose background reads as off-white or cream once compressed — always verify the RGB values before submitting.
- Honduras-specific: Submitting a photo older than 6 months even if you look the same — Honduras Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería / Ministério das Relações Exteriores) — Passport Division matches EXIF dates against the application date when available.
- Aspect ratio drifted from 35:45 after a careless crop
- Soft focus or motion blur from a handheld phone shot in low light
How to pass the checker
Re-shoot in flat, even lighting
Stand 1.5 m from a plain wall matching the required white background. Use two soft light sources (or window light through a thin curtain) on either side of your face to eliminate the shadow that triggers most Honduras rejections.
Crop precisely to 35×45 mm
Use our free image cropper to pull the exact 35:45 ratio. Position your eyes near the upper third of the frame and leave roughly 5 mm of headroom above the hair — the proportions Honduras Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería / Ministério das Relações Exteriores) — Passport Division expects.
Replace the background if it's the wrong colour
If our checker flags the background, compare it with the selected specification (white). The background remover can help prepare another preview; confirm that edited photos are accepted by the authority.
Verify face coverage with the checker
Re-upload the corrected photo and compare the framing with the selected application's guidance. Requirements for head position can vary by application.

Where do I apply for a passport in Honduras?
Honduras nationals apply through Honduras Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería / Ministério das Relações Exteriores) — Passport Division at the nearest passport office.

Is a white background required in Honduras passport photos?

What is the Honduras passport photo size in pixels?
413×531 pixels at 300 DPI. At 300 DPI that maps to the physical 35×45 mm print. If the online portal specifies a different pixel target, resize from a 300 DPI master file rather than re-cropping a smaller original.
