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

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