Use matte photo paper, not regular printer paper. When printing, select "actual size" or "no scaling" to ensure the photos are exactly 35 × 45 mm (1.4" × 1.8").

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is a Cape Verde passport photo?
Cape Verde passport photos must be 35x45mm, following the ICAO international biometric standard used across most of Europe and Africa.
How does the Cape Verde passport photo compare to US passport photos?
Cape Verde uses 35x45mm (rectangular), while the US uses 2x2 inches (51x51mm, square). The US photo is larger and square-shaped, so they are not interchangeable.
Can I wear glasses in my Cape Verde passport photo?
Yes, you can wear prescription glasses if they don't create glare and the frames don't cover your eyes. However, sunglasses and tinted lenses are not allowed. If in doubt, remove your glasses.
What background color is required for Cape Verde passport photos?
A plain white or light-colored background is required. The background cannot have any colors, patterns, or shadows. Dark clothing is recommended to provide contrast.
Can I take a selfie for my Cape Verde passport photo?
No, selfies are not acceptable as they can distort facial proportions. Have someone else take your photo with the camera at eye level, positioned about 4-5 feet away.
How recent must my Cape Verde passport photo be?
Your photo must be taken within the last 6 months and must reflect your current appearance. If you've significantly changed your appearance (hair color, facial hair, weight), you need a new photo.
