With the PhotoID Studio desktop app you can create a custom photo size for any document used in any country, save it as a preset, and reuse your saved preset with a single click.

Always verify the size before an official application

The information here reflects the sizes commonly accepted for visa applications. Authorities can change photo requirements without prior notice, and different documents in the same country (passport, ID card, driving licence, residence permit) may require different sizes. Check the current guidance of the authority you are applying to before preparing your photo.

How should a Tunisia visa photo look?

The Tunisian biometric passport (passeport biométrique) and national identity card (Carte d'Identité Nationale: CIN) require a 35×45 mm photo with a plain white background. Women who normally wear a headscarf may submit a photo with it on. The photo must be taken within the last 6 months.

Issuing authority: Ministère de l'Intérieur

Passport and identity document applications are handled by Ministère de l'Intérieur (Direction Générale de la Sûreté Nationale). Applications are accepted at authorised offices and service centres, and the photo requirements follow ICAO 9303.

Preparing your photo with PhotoID Studio

PhotoID Studio crops your image to 35×45 mm, replaces the background with white, and resizes it to meet Ministère de l'Intérieur and Ministry of Interior requirements. The result can be saved for digital submission or printing.

Photo capture tips

Stand against a plain white background in even lighting. The camera should be at eye level and the face fully visible from the front. If wearing a headscarf, the forehead, both cheeks, and chin must be clearly visible.

Common rejection reasons

• Background is not plain white or has shadows. • Eyes are closed or glasses are worn. • Face is not looking directly at the camera or expression is not neutral. • Photo is older than 6 months.
