Photo rules for China visa (33 × 48 mm)

Photos are 33 mm wide and 48 mm high, with a head width of 15–22 mm. Official Chinese pages give the head height as either 20–33 mm or 28–33 mm, so the tool uses 28–33 mm, which meets both.

How it works

  1. Take a photo facing the camera against a plain wall, in even light, from about 1–1.5 m away.
  2. Drop it in the box above. The tool finds your face, sizes it to the official rules and cleans the background.
  3. Press Create photos and download the digital photo and the print sheets.

About this tool

A China visa photo must be 33 × 48 mm with a white or near-white background. Your head, from chin to the top of your head, must measure 28–33 mm.

No separate digital size is published for this document, so the tool gives you the print-ready photo and sheets.
