Canadian dual citizens & travellers: Australia Passport sizes
Scope lock: this URL is for Australia Passport travel-document photos only — licence and national-ID copy live on their own pages.
In Canada, US australia passport requests are common for dual citizens and frequent travellers. Canadian passport dimensions (often taller prints) are a frequent mix-up with Australia square or ratio crops.
This article is scoped to Australia Passport as a Australia travel / passport photo (35 × 45 mm, Light grey). Driving-licence and national-ID wording is not pasted here.
Canada’s common 50 × 70 mm passport strip is taller than Australia Passport at 35 × 45 mm. Dual citizens who recycle the Canadian print into a Australia form get predictable rejections.
Australian passport guidance centres on 35 × 45 mm. If you selected Australia Passport, ignore that local default and keep 35 × 45 mm with Light grey.
From any province: selfie → Australia Passport selected → upload on this page → use the export for Australia online tools or a Australia appointment while living in Canada.
50 × 70 mm Canada vs Australia Passport
Do not trim a Canadian strip into another shape in Preview/Photos — head-size percentages break. Regenerate with Australia Passport so 35 × 45 mm is authored correctly.
Background must read Light grey for this passport document even if your Canadian studio used a cooler grey.
Cross-border filing habits for Australia Passport
Keep separate folders: “CA passport” vs “Australia Passport”. Mixing filenames is how the wrong JPEG gets uploaded at midnight.
