Uzbekistan Passport Photos and Visa Photo Requirements – Rules, Guidelines, and Specifications
For iVisa Photos to be able to process your passport photo so that it is government compliant, you have to take a valid picture. Below, you are going to find some guidelines that you have to follow when you take your photo at home.
- When you are getting ready to take your passport photo or visa photo, make sure that you position yourself against a white wall. It is okay to use a white sheet if you do not have a white wall. Just hang it on a wall, and you are set. Keep in mind that there should be no shadows and patterns on the background, either.
- We all know that light can play tricks on anything, which is why you need adequate lighting when you take your passport photo or visa photo. The source should be in front of you to avoid shadows on your face. Plus, the intensity has to be balanced.
- In your passport photo or visa photo, both sides of your face must appear equally. That is why you must keep your head straight and face forward. Do not submit a portrait-style photo as you will be asked to provide another one.
- You are not permitted to smile in your passport photo or visa photo. In fact, the only facial expression you are allowed to display is neutral.
- In any passport photo or visa photo, the eyes must be perfectly visible. Make sure that nothing obscures them. If you are wearing prescription glasses, it is recommended to take them off to avoid flash reflection. Also, it goes without saying that wearing glasses with tinted lenses or sunglasses in your picture is strictly forbidden.
- Generally, it is not allowed to appear in your passport photo or visa photo with your head covered. The only exception is for religious purposes. But even then, you must make sure that the headwear does not cast shadows on your face. Also, your face has to be visible from the bottom of your chin to the top of your forehead.
- You are not obligated to shave your beard before taking your picture as long as it represents a part of your everyday appearance.
Rules and Requirements for Babies, Infants, and Newborn Passport and Visa Photos
Children must hold their own travel documents. So, if you want to go on vacation abroad together, you have to get passports and visas for them as well. Once again, iVisa Photos can help you with the photos. Here are some tips that should help you in the process of photographing your children.
- You must take the photo of your child when he/she is awake.
- Your child has to be alone in the passport photo or visa photo. In case you want to hold your baby during the photo shoot, you have to conceal every single part of you. Even your hands.
- The child cannot appear in the picture with headwear, pacifier, or any other object.
- If you want to put your child in a car seat when you take the photo, remember that the backrest of the chair has to be covered with a white sheet to ensure a white background.
- When photographing your child from above in the lying down position, you have to put a white layer underneath. Again, the background has to be white.
