Glasses
Wrong head size
Wrong background
Shadow on face
Shadow on background
Wrong photo size — Photo must be exactly 35x45mm (3.5x4.5cm); other sizes will be rejected
Non-white background — Background must be plain white with no shadows, textures, or patterns
Wearing glasses — Glasses are not permitted unless you have medical documentation proving necessity
Wrong facial expression — Must show a neutral expression with mouth closed; smiling or frowning causes rejection
Head size out of range — Face must measure 32-36mm from chin to crown and fill 70-75% of the frame
Photo too old — Must be taken within the last 6 months and accurately represent your current appearance
Forehead not visible — Hair or accessories covering the forehead will lead to rejection
Printing Your Photo
For mail-in applications, print your photo on 4×6 photo paper at any drugstore. Our download includes a print-ready template with multiple photos — you only need 2 for most applications.
Use glossy 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 the Algeria passport photo?
The standard Algeria passport photo size is 35x45mm (3.5x4.5cm). Note that some Algerian embassies abroad (such as in Washington, D.C.) may require 2x2 inch (51x51mm) photos instead — always check with your specific consulate.
How does the Algeria passport photo compare to other formats?
Algeria uses the standard European/ICAO size of 35x45mm, which is the same as most European and African countries. This is different from the US passport photo (2x2 inches / 51x51mm).
Can I wear glasses in my Algeria passport photo?
No. Glasses must be removed for your passport photo unless you have documented medical reasons requiring them. Even then, there must be no glare on the lenses and your eyes must be fully visible.
What background color is required?
A plain white background is required. The background must be free of shadows, patterns, or any other markings.
How many passport photos do I need for an Algeria passport application?
You typically need 3 identical passport-sized photographs for an Algeria biometric passport application, though some consulates may require a different number.
Can I wear a headscarf or religious head covering?
Religious headwear that is worn daily is permitted, but it must not cover any part of your face. Your full facial features — from chin to forehead — must be clearly visible.
