Glasses
Wrong head size
Wrong background
Shadow on face
Shadow on background
Glasses reflections — Light reflecting off lenses obscures eyes; remove glasses before taking photo
Wrong background — Background must be plain white, off-white, or light grey with no shadows or patterns
Head size incorrect — Head must measure 31-36mm from chin to crown (70-80% of photo height)
Photo too old — Must be taken within the last 6 months showing current appearance
Shadows on face — Uneven lighting creating shadows on face or background causes rejection
Not facing straight ahead — Face must be photographed directly from the front, not tilted or turned

Use glossy or 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 Swedish passport photo?
Swedish passport photos must be 35×45mm, following the standard European biometric format. The head (from chin to crown) should measure 31-36mm, occupying approximately 70-80% of the photo height.
Can I wear glasses in my Swedish passport photo?
It's strongly recommended to remove glasses. While not strictly prohibited, glasses commonly cause rejections due to reflections on lenses and frames covering parts of the eyes. Tinted or mirrored glasses must always be removed.
What background color is required for Swedish passport photos?
The background should be plain white, off-white, or light grey. It must be uniform without any shadows, patterns, or objects visible.
How does the Swedish passport photo compare to US passport photos?
Swedish photos are 35×45mm (rectangular) while US photos are 2×2 inches/51×51mm (square). Both require white backgrounds and neutral expressions, but Swedish photos follow the standard EU/ICAO biometric format.
Where do I get my Swedish passport photo taken?
In Sweden, photos are taken at the police passport office (passexpedition) during your appointment. If applying abroad at a Swedish embassy or consulate, you may need to provide printed photos meeting the 35×45mm specifications.
How recent must my Swedish passport photo be?
Your photo must be taken within the last 6 months and accurately show your current appearance.
