Frequently Asked Questions
What size is an Israeli passport photo?
The standard Israeli passport photo is 35x45mm. If applying from the United States, a 2x2 inch (5x5cm) photo may also be accepted. Check with your local consulate for the accepted size.
Can I wear glasses in my Israeli passport photo?
No. Glasses are not allowed unless you have a signed doctor's statement explaining a documented medical necessity for wearing them.
Do I need a photo if I apply for a Darkon passport in Israel?
No. If you apply for a biometric Darkon passport directly at a Population and Immigration Authority office in Israel, you will be photographed on-site. Photos are needed when applying from abroad or for certain travel document types.
What background color is required for an Israeli passport photo?
The background must be plain white or light gray, evenly lit with no shadows. The most common and safest choice is a plain white background.
How recent does my Israeli passport photo need to be?
Your photo must have been taken within the last 3 months. This is stricter than many countries which allow 6-month-old photos.
Can I wear a head covering in my Israeli passport photo?
Only if it is worn for religious or medical reasons. You must submit a signed statement verifying the religious significance or a doctor's statement for medical necessity. The covering must not obscure any part of your face.
