The supplied facts list 35×45 mm as a common size and say there is no single official size. They do not establish that this measurement is widely accepted by authorities and embassies.
Head Height Specifications
The supplied facts do not list a head-height measurement for these Comorian documents. Check the specific application instructions for any framing guidance.
Even though the specific measurement is not set, you should keep your face centered and look straight ahead. Good framing helps the official reviewing your application clearly identify your facial features without confusion.
Submission Methods

The supplied facts list both printed and digital submission for the visitor visa photo. Check the current visa instructions for the method required in your case.
Preparing Your Photos at Home
You do not need to visit a professional studio to get your pictures ready. You can take a clear picture at home using a digital camera or smartphone while standing in front of a plain background.
Stand facing a window for soft, even lighting, and ask a friend to take the picture at eye level about one to one and a half meters away. Keep your expression neutral, keep your mouth closed, and remove your sunglasses or tinted glasses.
Using the Tool on This Page
You can easily format your pictures without needing complex editing software. Use the tool above to crop your photo to the correct dimensions quickly and safely in your browser.
The tool also arranges your cropped image onto a standard sheet layout. You can then print this sheet as an ordinary photo at any local printing kiosk to finish your preparation.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Many photo applications get rejected because of poor lighting or shadows on the face. Always make sure your face is evenly lit from the front without harsh shadows behind your ears or neck.
Do not wear hats, head coverings, or large accessories that obscure your facial features unless worn for religious or medical reasons. Double-check all requirements before printing your final photo sheet.
