Egyptian missions do not publish one global format. Paris and Doha use 40 ร— 60 mm, US offices use 2 ร— 2 inches, London uses 35 ร— 45 mm, and the public official eVisa requirements do not list a separate personal photo upload.

Requirements-only. The checker reads image dimensions in your browser; it does not upload, crop, resize, retouch, replace the background, store, submit, or prepare Egyptian visa photos.

Egypt filing-location note

Do not treat 40 ร— 60 mm as a worldwide Egypt rule. Confirm the exact size, quantity, recency, and attachment method with the Egyptian office receiving your application. PassPhoto keeps Egypt requirements-only because edited-output permission is not resolved across the official eVisa and consular routes reviewed here.

Official route comparison

Match the preset to the receiving office

The strongest official evidence is local. These are the current dimensions and workflow details published by Egyptian government missions reviewed for this guide.

Paris and Doha

40 ร— 60 mm

Two white-background photos; use this only when your receiving office asks for it.

United States

2 ร— 2 in

Washington and Los Angeles require recent high-definition white-background photos.

United Kingdom

35 ร— 45 mm

London asks for two recent colour photos, with the applicant name on the back.

Background

White

Every official consular route reviewed here specifies a white background.

Quantity

Usually two

Washington currently lists one for many routes, while LA, Paris, Doha, and London list two.

Recency

Check locally

US guidance says no more than six months old; other locations may only say recent.

Three application patterns

Paper applications vary; eVisa is separate

Common international route

Two 40 ร— 60 mm prints

Paris and Doha explicitly request two 4 ร— 6 cm photos on white. Treat that as a route-specific print instruction, not a universal edited-output preset.

Paris requirements

US and UK routes

Use the local dimensions

Washington and Los Angeles use 2 ร— 2 inches. London instead publishes 35 ร— 45 mm and asks applicants to write their name on the back.

London requirements

Official online route

No personal photo listed

The public eVisa FAQ lists arrival and supporting documents but no separate personal photo upload. The live application instructions always take priority.

Official eVisa requirements

Egypt requirements-only route protection

The reviewed official sources do not establish one safe edited-output route: eVisa guidance does not list a personal-photo upload, and missions publish different physical-photo sizes. PassPhoto keeps Egypt requirements-only and does not upload, crop, resize, retouch, replace the background, store, submit, or prepare an edited Egypt visa photo.

Public result conflicts

Do not copy generic Egypt maker claims

Reviewed public results on 12 September 2026 still promoted one-click Egypt visa photo makers, 40 ร— 60 mm or 2 ร— 2 inch presets, automatic white-background replacement, 300 DPI conversions, and acceptance-style wording. Official Egyptian sources reviewed here point to route-specific print requirements or no public eVisa photo upload, so this page stays requirements-only.

Egypt visa photo FAQ

What size is an Egypt visa photo?

There is no single worldwide size. Egyptian consular pages in Paris and Doha require 40 x 60 mm, Washington and Los Angeles require 2 x 2 inches, and London requires 35 x 45 mm. PassPhoto keeps Egypt requirements-only because the receiving office controls the final format.

Does the official Egypt eVisa require a personal photo upload?

The public requirements on the official Ministry of Interior eVisa FAQ list a travel document valid for six months, the eVisa printout, itinerary, supporting letter where relevant, and accommodation details. They do not list a separate personal photo upload. Follow any instructions shown inside your live application account if they differ.

How many printed photos do I need?

It depends on the office and visa route. Los Angeles, Paris, Doha, and London publish two-photo requirements. Washington currently asks for one photo on many tourist and business routes, while some special-document routes ask for two.

Must the background be white?

Yes for the official consular routes reviewed on this page. Washington, Los Angeles, Paris, Doha, and London all specify a white background. The eVisa public FAQ does not publish a separate photo-background rule because it does not list a personal photo upload.

Can PassPhoto replace the background?

No for this reviewed route set. The official eVisa FAQ does not list a separate personal-photo upload, and consular routes publish physical-photo requirements with different sizes and copy counts. PassPhoto does not process Egypt visa photos until the exact receiving route safely supports edited output.

What is the Egypt visa photo size in pixels?

The official consular pages reviewed here specify physical dimensions, not one national pixel value. Use digital dimensions, file-size limits, or head-height values only when the official filing route publishes them.

Does PassPhoto print or submit Egypt visa photos?

No. PassPhoto does not print, submit, edit, or guarantee acceptance for Egypt visa photos. Use the official instructions from the Egyptian mission, consulate, or eVisa route handling your application.

Official sources

Verify the receiving office before printing

Egypt's official missions publish different photo formats. Use the current page or checklist for the consulate, embassy, or online route handling your application.

Printing and submission are your responsibility

PassPhoto does not print, submit, edit, or guarantee acceptance. Use suitable photo paper when prints are requested and follow the exact instructions from the Egyptian office receiving your application.
