40×60 mm · 472×708 px @ 300 DPI
Government photo-ID applications enforce strict pixel and millimetre specifications because rejection costs the applicant another visit and the issuing office processing time. Egypt Visa Photo is the spec used for the Egypt passport / visa photo standard; if your submitted image misses the dimensions or compression ceiling, the system flags it before a human sees it. This preset crops to portrait 2:3 and exports 472×708 JPEG @ 300 DPI, matching the published guideline. Most rejections happen for one of three reasons: wrong physical dimensions, non-white background, or the source resolution was too low to upscale cleanly to 472×708 JPEG @ 300 DPI.

The Egypt photo standard is administered by the Egyptian Ministry of Interior. North Africa member states have generally aligned with the 472×708 px specification at 300 DPI, though local rejection criteria vary.
Where this preset's output is accepted: Egyptian passport, national ID (al-rekm al-qaumi), and visa-on-arrival or e-Visa applications.
Travel-document context: Egyptian passport holders enjoy visa-free or visa-on-arrival access to 53 destinations, ranking 86th globally; the Ministry of Interior's photo regulation harmonised with Arab League standards in 2018. The photo specifications described on this page apply to the document used for that travel.
Country-specific note: Egyptian passport photos require a plain off-white or white background; the consulate additionally rejects photos with shadows on the face from low angle lighting. Run this preset, then verify the result against the official guidelines linked in the specifications table above before submitting.
This preset is a deterministic recipe — every step has fixed parameters so the result is byte-identical across runs of the same input.
Egypt Visa Photo crops your input to 2:3 and resizes it to 472×708 px as JPEG — a 334-kilopixel output. The work runs through canvas APIs and a WebAssembly image-encoder; the source image is decoded into an off-screen canvas, transformed in place, and re-encoded without any network upload.
Government photo-ID portals pre-validate the image dimensions before accepting upload; matching the spec exactly skips the rejection round-trip. The browser-side path also means the file never leaves your device — relevant when the input contains personally identifiable information, screenshots of private documents, ID scans, or proprietary product photography.
472×708 px at 300 DPI, saved as JPEG at quality 92%.
The target platform — see the cited spec — uses portrait 2:3 as its native frame. Submitting any other ratio means the platform's own crop runs, which often clips faces or text near the edge.
300 DPI is the print-grade resolution at which the dot pattern disappears at normal reading distance. Government photo offices, commercial print shops, and biometric scanners all assume 300 DPI; anything lower prints visibly soft.
The target accepts JPEG, and JPEG compresses photographic content 5-10× smaller than PNG with no visible difference at quality 92%. PNG is the right choice only when the image has hard edges or transparency — which photo-ID, social posts, and product photos don't.
No. This preset runs entirely in your browser using WebAssembly + canvas APIs — no server round-trip. You can verify this in your browser's network panel: only static asset requests, no image upload. The file never leaves your device.
