Korean passport photo size
South Korean passport photos are 35×45 mm colour portraits on a plain white background. Face the camera directly with a natural expression, mouth closed, and both eyes open. Hats and sunglasses are not allowed.
The photo should look like you today: recent hair colour, no heavy filters, and enough resolution for a sharp print. Digital files are commonly prepared around 413×531 pixels at 300 DPI.
Home capture that still looks official
Stand a little more than an arm’s length from the phone, use window light from the front, and keep the camera at eye height. PhotoGov crops to 35×45 mm, places the head correctly, and replaces the background with white for Korea Passport submissions.
Before you apply, confirm the chin, forehead and both ears (when visible) are inside the frame and that the image is not stretched.
Photo tips
- Remove glasses; reflections are a frequent rejection reason.
- Wear clothes that contrast with white.
- Do not use beauty filters that change face shape.
- Print on glossy photo paper if lodging in person.
Common rejection reasons
- Off-white or patterned background
- Smile showing teeth
- Cropped chin or top of the head
- Blur from camera shake
