Australian visa photo requirements
Australian visa photos typically follow the same 35×45 mm portrait used for Australian passports: plain light background, head and shoulders facing the camera, neutral expression. Glasses are not accepted for identity photos in most streams.
ImmiAccount and paper lodgements still reject busy backgrounds, smiles, and files that have been stretched from a different aspect ratio.
Passport photo versus visa photo
The pixel size is the same 35×45 mm family as Australia Passport, but you should still pick the Australia Visa preset so background and crop match visa instructions rather than mixing in a licence or proof-of-age template.
Take a clear front-facing selfie in daylight, process it in PhotoGov, then upload through ImmiAccount or print according to your visa subclass.
Photo tips
- Remove glasses and hats before photographing.
- Do not crop a square US photo into 35×45 mm.
- Keep the background plain; PhotoGov can still normalize colour.
- Use a recent photo if your appearance has changed.
Common rejection reasons
- Smile or open mouth
- Shadows behind the head
- Incorrect aspect ratio
- Hair covering the eyes
