Common Canada Visa Photo Searches

  • Canada visa photo online: The modern way to get your IRCC photo.
  • IRCC photo requirements: All rules checked by our AI automatically.
  • Canada visitor visa photo: 35x45mm format for TRV applications.
  • PR photo Canada: 50x70mm format for permanent residence applications.
  • Canada visa photo near me: Skip the search — get yours from home.

Official IRCC Visa Photo Requirements Checklist

A rejected photo is the #1 cause of Canada visa application delays. IRCC has strict rules that vary by application type. Our AI checks all of these automatically:

  • Dimensions: 35x45mm for most visas, 50x70mm for PR applications.
  • Face Size: Chin to crown must be 31mm to 36mm.
  • Background: Plain white. No shadows, patterns, or textures.
  • Glasses: Not permitted. Remove before taking your photo.
  • Expression: Neutral, mouth closed, eyes open and visible.
  • Recency: Taken within the last 6 months.
  • Head Position: Centred and facing forward, not tilted.
  • Lighting: Even, no shadows on face or background.

Which Canada Visa Types Need a Photo?

Every IRCC application requires a compliant photo. The size depends on the application type:

  • Visitor Visa (TRV): 35x45mm photo required for tourist and business visitors.
  • Study Permit: 35x45mm photo for students coming to Canada.
  • Work Permit: 35x45mm photo for temporary foreign workers.
  • Permanent Residence (PR): 50x70mm photo — larger format required.
  • Super Visa: 35x45mm photo for parents and grandparents.
  • Citizenship Application: 50x70mm photo — same as passport size.

Why Use PhotoPass Instead of a Canadian Store?

Stores like Shoppers Drug Mart, London Drugs, and Costco offer passport and visa photos, but they often use automated kiosks that don't verify against specific IRCC requirements. Many applicants have photos rejected because the wrong size was printed for their visa type.

PhotoPass is different. Our AI knows the exact requirements for every IRCC application type and applies the correct specifications automatically. If we spot a problem, we flag it before you submit. And if our photo is rejected, we offer a full refund.

PhotoPass vs. Retail

  • 💰 Cheaper: Digital photos from CAD 12.99 vs $15-$25 in store.
  • ⏱️ Faster: Ready in 3 minutes vs driving and waiting.
  • Guaranteed: Money-back IRCC acceptance guarantee.
