What’s a Visa Photo?

It’s more than a headshot — it’s your biometric identity for international travel. Egyptian authorities use this image to verify who you are. If your photo doesn’t match the embassy’s requirements, your visa can be delayed or even denied.

      PhotoGov takes that risk away — you get a verified photo without the guesswork.

Tips & Recommendations

  • Clean your phone camera before taking a shot
  • Don’t use filters or smoothing apps
  • Make sure your shoulders are visible
  • Avoid busy backgrounds and patterned walls
  • Try a few times — our app shows you which one works best
  • Full Rules – Size, Dress Code, Colors

  • Size: Must be exactly 40x60 mm
  • Clothing: Wear something that contrasts with the background (not white)
  • Expression: Neutral, no smiling
  • Glasses: Not allowed
  • Headgear: Only for religious purposes
  • Background: White or light gray, no shadows or textures
  • Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Using a wrong size (like passport size instead of 40x60 mm)
  • Smiling or tilting your head
  • Wearing white clothes or accessories that blend in
  • Shadows on the wall or your face
  • Low-resolution or blurry images
  • Using a selfie app that alters facial features
  • With PhotoGov, we prevent all of these automatically

    Photo Validity & Appearance Changes

    Your Egypt visa photo must be recent, usually taken within the last 6 months. If your appearance has changed significantly (new beard, haircut, weight change), it’s safest to upload a new photo.
