OnlinePassportPhoto.com is pleased to offer our online service for Indian
Passport photos too. Indian Passport photos are typically 35x35mm in
size versus 2x2 inch (51x51m) size for US Passport photos. However since
March 2011, if you need Indian Passport photos within USA to renew your
Indian Passport or to apply for a new passport, the size is 2x2 inch
(51mmx 51mm), same as the US passport photos for all Indian Consulates
except for Houston Consulate of India. However if you need Indian Passport
photos for power of attorney form, or to open a bank account, or a depository
account, in India, you will probably need 35x35mm photos. So please
select the right size when you are ordering Indian passport photos on
our website. You can also click on this form and let
us know what sized Indian Passport photos you need.
(If you need PAN card photos for
India, the size is 25mmx35mm)

Feedback about our Indian Passport Photo service:
Recently I have placed
an order with onlinepassportphoto.com, I must say it was a very
smooth process. They are very fast at responding to your inquiries,
or if you wish they can answer your questions on phone. So the
experience I had with onlinepassportphoto.com was outstanding.
I say this because in the past, I have gotten many passport pictures
and they were very poor quality. In my opinion,this website is
the best out there, no one will be able to beat their service
or price. I assure you,you will receive wonderful passport pictures!

Indian Passport Photo Requirements
Indian Consulates at Chicago,
San Francisco and New York have recently started asking for 2x2 inch
passport photos. The Indian Embassy at Washington DC also requires 2x2
inch photos. To our information, the Indian Consulate at Houston is
the only one that requires 35x35mm sized photos.
Photographs:Four recent color photographs of 2” x 2” against
white background showing full frontal view of face are required. Out
of these one photograph is to be pasted (do not staple this photo)
on the first page of the application in the space provided for the
purpose. Photographs with other than white background will not be
accepted.
Photographs:Three
passport size photographs (size 2 inches x 2 inches with white background)showing
frontal view of full face including the one to be pasted on the top
of application form;
Here are samples of Indian
Passport Photos:
Comparison: Indian Passport
Photo vs USA Passport Picture
1. Passport Photo Size: USA
requires Passport photos to be around 2 inch x 2 inch which is around
50mm x 50 mm. On the other hand, most Indian consulates in the USA require
passport photos for Indian Passport application/renewal to be of the
size of 35mm Vs 35 mm. Look at the sample below that compares Indian
Passport picture to US Passport Picture.
2. Face size inside photo:
USA passport photo requires the face size between 1" and 1 3/8".
While on the other hand, compared to the photo size, Indian Consulates
in the USA require the face to fill in around 70% to 80% of the photo.
These 2 differences make
it difficult to get accurate passport photos for Indian Passport application
or Passport renewal within USA. As we know, none of the USA based stores-
CVS Passports, Walgreens Passport Photo center, Walmart Passport photo
center, or Costco Passport Photos- offer passport photo service for
Indian Passports. On the other hand, we offer this unique service at
the most competitive rates. We offer 8 Indian Passport Photos delivered
to your home for just $7.95. If you have an urgent need, let
us know the address of a local Walgreens store after placing your
order with us and we will make the photos available for pickup at your
Walgreens store usually within 24 hours on business days.
