Vérificateur de photos de visa pour les Islande

If you're applying for a Iceland visa, check the photo requirements before submitting. Our Iceland Visa 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.

Iceland uses 35×45 mm biometric passport photos with a light gray background. Icelandic passports are issued by the Registers Iceland (Þjóðskrá Íslands). As a Schengen member, Iceland follows EU biometric photo standards. 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 Iceland visa rejection reasons

Iceland-specific: Ordering an off-spec size — the international 35×45 mm default is not 35×45 mm used by Iceland, and studios often print the wrong size unless the exact dimensions are stated in millimetres.
Iceland-specific: Using ordinary printer paper for the print — European scanners require photographic-grade paper and reject standard inkjet output for the background uniformity check.
Iceland-specific: Uploading a photo whose background reads as close to but not exactly light gray once compressed — always verify the RGB values before submitting.
Iceland-specific: Submitting a photo older than 6 months even if you look the same — Iceland Ministry of Foreign Affairs — Passport Service matches EXIF dates against the application date when available.

How to pass the checker

Reprenez la photo dans un éclairage plat et uniforme
Stand 1.5 m from a plain wall matching the required light gray 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 Iceland 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 Iceland Ministry of Foreign Affairs — Passport Service expects.

Remplacez l'arrière-plan s'il est de mauvaise couleur
If our checker flags the background, compare it with the selected specification (light gray). The background remover can help prepare another preview; confirm that edited photos are accepted by the authority.
