Comprobador de fotografías de pasaportes de Cuba
If you're applying for a Cuba passport, check the photo requirements before submitting. Our Cuba Passport Photo Checker compares your image with the listed dimensions and background guidance in your browser. Preview the result for free; the issuing authority makes the final decision.
Cuba uses a 45×45 mm square format for passports, one of the few countries using this size. Cuban passport photos must have a white background with the face centered in the frame. Given limited digital photography infrastructure in some areas, it's helpful to have your photo pre-sized digitally before visiting a Cuban consulate. That detail matters — most consumer photo apps still ship with generic templates that ignore these specifics. Upload your image above and we'll measure dimensions, sample the background, run face detection, and tell you exactly what to fix before you submit.
Photo checking happens locally in your browser. Sharing or saving a result is a separate action you choose.

Common Cuba passport rejection reasons
- Cuba-specific: Ordering an off-spec size — the international 35×45 mm default is not 45×45 mm used by Cuba, and studios often print the wrong size unless the exact dimensions are stated in millimetres.
- Cuba-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.
- Cuba-specific: Uploading a photo whose background reads as off-white or cream once compressed — always verify the RGB values before submitting.
- Cuba-specific: Submitting a photo older than 6 months even if you look the same — Cuba Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería / Ministério das Relações Exteriores) — Passport Division matches EXIF dates against the application date when available.
- Aspect ratio drifted from 45:45 after a careless crop
- Enfoque suave o desenfoque de movimiento desde un teléfono portátil tomado con poca luz
How to pass the checker
Crop precisely to 45×45 mm
Use our free image cropper to pull the exact 45:45 ratio. Position your eyes near the upper third of the frame and leave roughly 5 mm of headroom above the hair — the proportions Cuba Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería / Ministério das Relações Exteriores) — Passport Division expects.
Vuelva a disparar con una iluminación plana y uniforme
Colóquese a 1,5 m de una pared lisa que coincida con el fondo blanco requerido. Utilice dos fuentes de luz suave (o la luz de una ventana a través de una cortina delgada) a cada lado de su cara para eliminar la sombra que provoca la mayoría de los rechazos en Cuba.
Reemplace el fondo si es del color incorrecto
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.
Verificar la cobertura de la cara con el corrector.
Re-upload the corrected photo and compare the framing with the selected application's guidance. Requirements for head position can vary by application.
