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

Suisse passport note
Swiss passport photos commonly use 35 × 45 mm-class framing when that matches 35 × 45 mm; this page still binds Suisse Passeport.
