Notes

The portal checks both images

Vietnam’s e-visa portal asks for two images: your portrait and your passport data page. Its guide says the system verifies both automatically and fills in your passport details, which you should check before you continue.

What we check, and what we can’t

On your device, we measure the head size and where it sits, the eye line, the wall behind you, the light on your face, the pose and the sharpness against this rule, and we crop the photo to its size. We level, resize and crop it, and nothing else.

We can’t tell how recent the photo is, whether it still looks like you, or what the office’s own reviewer will see on the day. The office that takes your application decides whether to accept it.

How we check

Why a real photo matters

The Vietnam e-visa rule on editing

Vietnam’s e-visa instructions don’t mention editing; the portal checks each portrait automatically.

We read Viet Nam e-Visa portal, Guide to entering e-visa declaration information.

Start with your original camera photo. Check the document’s rules, including whether your head fills 50–69% of the photo’s height, the range we use.

We don’t generate your photo. We level, scale and crop your original pixels to 472 × 709 px, then show you the head height and the margins before you pay.

Our guides cover AI and passport photos and changing a photo’s background.

The files

  • studioless-vn-evisa-digital.jpg

    Vietnam e-visa portrait upload: JPG or JPEG, 4 × 6 cm, less than 2MB. The instructions publish no pixel size; we export 4 × 6 cm at 300 dpi (472 × 709 px).

    472 × 709 px JPEG, under 2 MB

Your check results come with the files, and everything is deleted 7 days after your order.

Changes to this page’s rule

  1. Added 7 documents (Indian passport, India e-Visa, Chinese passport, Vietnam e-visa, Brazil eVisa, German passport and NZeTA), each checked against its official pages on October 9; Brazil’s photo guide and VFS Global’s Indian passport checklist were read from archived copies, because their live pages block automated access.

Questions

Can I use ChatGPT or an AI app for my Vietnam e-visa photo?

Start with an original camera photo, rather than a generated or retouched portrait. Vietnam’s e-visa instructions don’t mention editing; the portal checks each portrait automatically. Confirm permitted edits with the issuing authority; a chatbot’s answer does not establish acceptance. We only level, scale and crop the photo you take.

Can I wear glasses in a Vietnam e-visa photo?

No. Glasses aren’t allowed in this photo, so take them off before you take it. We ask you to confirm it before you pay.

What do I get for $9.95?

You get a 472 × 709 px JPEG for the online form, within its file-size limit.

Where do I get my files?

On your order page after you pay, with no account to make.
