What size is a passport photo?

In most countries 35 × 45 mm (3.5 × 4.5 cm). US passport and visa photos are 2 × 2 inches (51 × 51 mm).

Does this remove or change the background?

No. It crops, resizes and compresses. Take the photo against a plain light background as the official rules require.

How do I get the file under 20 KB?

Use the exact-size compressor after cropping and set the target your portal asks for.

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. All processing happens in your browser and the photo never leaves your device.
