Mexico Passport from the UK: ignore GOV.UK sizes
Scope lock: this URL is for Mexico Passport travel-document photos only — licence and national-ID copy live on their own pages.
Many people in the United Kingdom order a Mexico Passport while renewing from abroad, booking a US consular appointment, or submitting an online US form. GOV.UK photo rules do not apply to that file — only Mexico specifications on this page do.
This article is scoped to Mexico Passport as a Mexico travel / passport photo (35 × 45 mm, Light grey). Driving-licence and national-ID wording is not pasted here.
British applicants routinely paste a 35 × 45 mm HMPO-style portrait into a Mexico form. That portrait is legal for a UK passport — and wrong for Mexico Passport at 35 × 45 mm on Light grey.
Official framing for Mexico Passport on FotoPass is 35 × 45 mm with a Light grey background. Treat any other country’s booth print as a different template.
Practical UK workflow: selfie in daylight near a window (avoid yellow tungsten alone), confirm Mexico Passport, upload here, then attach the export to the Mexico online tool or take it to your London / Belfast / Edinburgh consular packet — not a high-street “UK passport” booth ticket.
35 × 45 mm vs Mexico Passport geometry
UK passport guidance is a tall rectangle. Mexico Passport needs 35 × 45 mm (exact millimetres above). Phone “perspective” tools cannot invent the missing width legally.
If a UK chemist already printed 35 × 45 mm, leave that print for UK renewals. Generate a separate Mexico Passport file on FotoPass for Mexico passport filings.
Filing Mexico Passport from England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland
Online Mexico passport renewals accept digital photos when the crop matches Mexico rules. Embassy / consulate appointments serving UK residents still expect the same 35 × 45 mm standard — bring the newest download, not last year’s holiday snap.

Mexico passport photo — what people search
This page is scoped to Mexico Passport only: 35 × 45 mm on a Light grey background. Licence or national-ID crops belong on their own document pages.
Queries such as “Mexico passport photo size” and “biometric passport photo” should land here — not on a driving-licence tool with a coincidentally similar millimetre size.
Mexico passport note
Mexican passport booths may default to regional sizes — confirm Mexico Passport stays 35 × 45 mm.

Treat UK and Mexico photo products as two different SKUs — this page only manufactures the Mexico Passport passport one.
