China Passport from Singapore: travel-document crop only
Scope lock: this URL is for China Passport travel-document photos only — licence and national-ID copy live on their own pages.
Living in Singapore does not change the China photo standard for China Passport. Use this page when the application names China sizes, not a local ICA or Home Affairs crop.
This article is scoped to China Passport as a China travel / passport photo (33 × 48 mm, White). Driving-licence and national-ID wording is not pasted here.
Cross-border passport work: your UI market is Singapore, but the photo law is China for China Passport. Local booth habits do not travel.
Official framing for China Passport on FotoPass is 33 × 48 mm with a White background. Treat any other country’s booth print as a different template.
Home-market tip: Singapore passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. China Passport instead demands 33 × 48 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From Singapore: unfiltered selfie → lock China Passport → upload → use the export for China passport portals or embassy packets — never a recycled licence file.
Why Singapore booth prints fail China passport checks
A 35 × 45 mm Singapore print is not a legal 33 × 48 mm passport crop. Phone edge-trims break head ratios that border systems measure.
Cream or grey Singapore studio paper can also fail when China Passport requires White.
Embassy / online passport filing from Singapore
Submit the newest China Passport export — not last year’s holiday portrait — whether you file online or attend a China mission serving Singapore.
Compress for portal KB limits only after the biometric passport crop is set.
Do not switch away from China Passport
Market chrome may say Singapore, but the selector must stay on this passport product. Changing to a local licence silently changes millimetres.
China passport photo — what people search
This page is scoped to China Passport only: 33 × 48 mm on a White background. Licence or national-ID crops belong on their own document pages.
Queries such as “China passport photo size” and “biometric passport photo” should land here — not on a driving-licence tool with a coincidentally similar millimetre size.
China passport note
Mainland passport guidance often differs from visa photos. Keep China Passport at 33 × 48 mm / White.
