US Passport & Visa Photo Maker - 2×2 Inch (51×51mm) - Official Size
Upload a photo — this tool auto-detects your head, crops it to the exact 2×2 inch (51×51mm) size travel.state.gov requires for both passport and visa photos, whitens the background, and checks your head height against the official 25–35mm rule before you download.

Upload a photo to check head size
Head detection runs automatically once a photo loads. Align eyes with the blue eye-line guide, neutral expression, both eyes open, no glasses, white/off-white background, no shadows. 300 DPI · 600×600px.
The print sheet and PDF are always full quality — this only applies to the single JPG, e.g. for a DS-160/CEAC upload that caps file size.
CEAC's DS-160 photo upload commonly caps files around 240KB — for a bigger squeeze, Toolsda's Image Compressor targets any size down to 20KB.
Head detection, cropping, and background whitening all run in this tab — your photo never leaves the device.
