Australia visa photo in Dubai, ready for your application.
Your photograph must be in colour, no more than 6 months old and unedited. It must show your full face, head and shoulders against a neutral or light grey background that contrasts with your face. We prepare printed copies and a direct digital file for ImmiAccount.

Small details can stop your photo from meeting the rules.
Home Affairs lists incorrect backgrounds, reflections from glasses and shadows on the image or background as rejection reasons. The photograph must also remain unedited. We control these details before checking the finished file.
Neutral or light grey background
The background must be neutral or light grey and must contrast with your face. A common home wall may have the wrong tone, weak contrast or visible shadows.
Glasses must come off
Glasses must be removed. Reflections on the lenses are a listed rejection reason. If glasses cannot be removed for medical reasons, they should be untinted.
No filters or background removal
The image must be unedited. Phone beautify filters and background removal can change skin detail, moles, wrinkles, scars, red eyes or the background.
Prepared for paper applications and ImmiAccount.
These are the current Home Affairs photograph requirements. We check the size, background, lighting and framing before sending your files.

Use a direct digital copy.
For an online application through ImmiAccount, you upload a digital copy. A scan of a printed photo is not acceptable. A photograph of a photo is also not acceptable.
Home Affairs recommends a professional passport photo provider. It does not recommend online passport photo services or mobile apps because their images may not meet the image quality requirements.
Three steps, in and out.
No appointment is needed. Walk in and receive your checked prints and digital file in about 10 minutes.
Walk in
Visit our Business Bay studio without an appointment, or ask us to visit your home or office. Tell us the photo is for an Australia application.
We shoot it right
We use controlled light and a neutral or light grey background. We frame your full face, head and shoulders, then check the required measurements.
Print plus file
You receive printed copies and a direct digital colour file for ImmiAccount. The image remains unedited.
Need a different country?
Every country applies different photo rules, so one file may not suit another application. The United Kingdom uses a different specification, and we shoot those photos too.
