Nigeria passport photo size & rules
Nigeria uses the 35x45mm photo format for passports and many visa procedures, equal to 413x531 pixels at 300 dpi. While the Nigerian e-passport is captured live at Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) enrolment centres, printed 35x45mm photos on a white background are commonly required for visa applications, supporting documents, and consular procedures abroad. The face should be centred and clearly shown, with the head measuring roughly 32-36mm from chin to crown.
The background must be plain white and uniform, evenly lit with no shadow behind the head. Face the camera directly with a neutral expression and mouth closed, both eyes open and clearly visible, and the whole face uncovered from forehead to chin. Glasses are best removed to avoid glare, and if worn the eyes must remain clearly visible. Head coverings worn for religious reasons are generally permitted provided the full face is shown. The photo must be recent, in sharp colour, and reflect your current appearance without filters or heavy editing.
Pixohub formats your Nigerian passport or visa photo to 413x531 pixels on a white background directly in your browser, so nothing is uploaded and your image stays private on your own device, and the tool is free. Requirements from the Nigeria Immigration Service and Nigerian missions abroad are updated over time and the live-enrolment process can differ from printed-photo submissions. Always confirm the current official specifications with the NIS or your nearest consulate before printing or submitting your photo.
