Philippines Passport from the UK: ignore GOV.UK sizes
Scope lock: this URL is for Philippines Passport travel-document photos only — licence and national-ID copy live on their own pages.
Many people in the United Kingdom order a Philippines 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 Philippines specifications on this page do.
This article is scoped to Philippines Passport as a Philippines 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 Philippines form. That portrait is legal for a UK passport — and wrong for Philippines Passport at 35 × 45 mm on Light grey.
Official framing for Philippines 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 Philippines Passport, upload here, then attach the export to the Philippines online tool or take it to your London / Belfast / Edinburgh consular packet — not a high-street “UK passport” booth ticket.
35 × 45 mm vs Philippines Passport geometry
UK passport guidance is a tall rectangle. Philippines 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 Philippines Passport file on FotoPass for Philippines passport filings.
Filing Philippines Passport from England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland
Online Philippines passport renewals accept digital photos when the crop matches Philippines 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.

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

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