Brunei work pass photo (35×45 mm)

Understanding the Size Requirements

The Department of Immigration and National Registration handles work pass applications in Brunei^[1]. For your application, you must submit two recent printed photos^[1].

The immigration checklist requires two recent photos^[1]. The government business guide describes them as current passport-size photos^[2]. Neither source states dimensions; 35 by 45 mm (1.38 by 1.77 in) is practical crop guidance.

Always check with the issuing office if you want to confirm their local preferences before you print your pictures.

Head Height and Composition

The cited sources do not state a head-height measurement for this pass^[1][2].

The cited sources do not give a chin-to-crown measurement^[1][2].

You can use the tool above to adjust your picture to the 35×45 mm dimensions easily.

Background and Lighting Details

Your photo background is an important part of any application image. The immigration checklist requires two recent photos; the government business guide describes them as current passport-size photos^[1][2]. No background color is specified on the immigration page^[1].

When you take your picture at home, try to use a plain wall if possible. Face a window or a soft lamp to light your face evenly.

Good lighting helps your features stand out clearly without creating dark shadows behind you.

Glasses, Expression, and Headwear

The cited sources do not specify rules for glasses, headwear, or facial expression.

Glasses are unspecified in the official guidance^[1][2]. Headwear and neutral expressions are also unspecified by the authority^[1][2].

If you need guidance on glasses or headwear, check with the issuing office.

Preparing and Printing Your Photos

Brunei work pass rules require you to submit physical copies with your paperwork. You must supply two recent printed photos with your work pass application^[1].

The checklist does not specify whether photos may be submitted digitally^[1]. Follow the submission instructions for your application.

You can use the tool above to arrange your cropped image onto a normal 4×6-inch photo sheet. Take that file to a local kiosk and print it just like a regular vacation picture.

Steps to Take Your Own Photo

Taking a good picture at home saves you time and money. Stand about one to one and a half meters away from the camera lens.

Place your camera or phone on a stable surface or ask a friend to hold it at your eye level. Look straight ahead into the lens with a relaxed posture.

Take a few test shots so you can check the lighting and your distance before you make your final selection.

Children and Dependents

Work pass applications sometimes include family members or dependents. The official sources do not list specific infant or child rules for this document type^[1][2].

If you are submitting photos for a child or dependent, check directly with the Department of Immigration and National Registration to see if they follow standard adult photo rules or if they allow exceptions for very young children^[1].
