Thirty-five by forty-five millimetres is the print you carry to the davlat xizmatlari markazi for an ID-karta, and the size Uzbek consular checklists give for a biometric passport — two copies, not one. What sets it apart is how tightly it crops: the face takes 70–80% of the frame.

How much of the frame the head has to fill

Seventy to eighty per cent of a 45 mm height puts chin-to-hairline between 31.5 and 36 mm, or 744 to 850 pixels inside an 827 × 1063 image at 600 dpi. What is left over, 9 mm at the tightest crop and 13.5 mm at the loosest, is shared between the gap above your hair and the shoulders below your chin. Aim near 34 mm and roughly 2 mm of slack sits either side.

What gets this one sent back

  • White only here, with no grey allowance. A cream wall under warm bulbs photographs beige, and beige is not what the check expects.
  • Head coverings are not permitted, so the doppi, the scarf and the winter hat all come off before the shutter.
  • Matte paper is written into the requirement. Say so at the kiosk counter, because gloss is what the machine prints otherwise.
  • A phone held at arm's length sits about 60 cm from the face, and at that distance the lens rounds the nose and pulls the ears back out of view. Prop the phone up, step away to roughly a metre and a half, and use the timer or the volume button.

Half a metre clear of the wall so your shadow falls behind you, camera at about 1.5 metres so the lens does not widen your nose, soft light from the front. Take several.

Getting the print right

35×45 mm is a physical instruction; 827×1063 pixels is what it becomes at 600 dpi. The head band follows the same conversion — 70–80% of 45 mm is 31.5–36.0 mm, or 744–850 pixels in the exported file.

No digital ceiling is published for this one, which means the print is the binding version and the file only has to survive being printed. Use the sheet rather than sending a single image to a shop — several copies at true size on one page costs the same and covers the spare everyone ends up needing.

Print at 100%, not "fit to page" — the default shrink is invisible to you and measurable to whoever checks it.

How it works

  2. 02Frame it to 35×45 mmDrag and zoom until your head fills 70–80% of the frame height, matching the dashed guide.
  3. 03Check the warningsThe border area is measured against "plain white" and flagged if it is uneven.

Questions people actually ask

How many prints should I take with me?
More than one. The consular checklist from Uzbekistan's embassy in Belgium asks for two photographs at 3.5 × 4.5 cm, and spares in the folder cost almost nothing against a second morning of queueing. The print sheet here lays several copies at true physical size on one page, which covers the application and the extra that somebody always asks for.
Is my 2011 biometric passport still valid, or do I need an ID card?
Uzbekistan began issuing ID cards in place of the 2011 biometric passport from 2021, and those passports stay in force until 31 December 2030. Applications go through a State Services Centre or a migration and citizenship registration department, and the card is produced within one working day of the documents being accepted. The transition has run for years, so confirm the position for your own document.
My phone photo is smaller than 827 × 1063. Is that a problem?
It is only a problem if it stays that way. The 827 × 1063 figure is 35 × 45 mm at 600 dpi, and it is the size the file has to be exported at, not the size the camera has to shoot at. What matters is that the face already occupies enough of the original frame: crop a head out of a wide group photo and you may be left with 300 pixels of face being stretched to fill 800, which prints as a soft, slightly plastic-looking portrait even though the dimensions are correct on paper. Fill the frame with the head when you take the shot and any recent phone has pixels to spare.
What size does a Uzbekistan photo have to be?
35×45 mm, which is 827×1063 pixels at 600 dpi. The head, measured from the bottom of the chin to the top of the hair, must fill 70–80% of the photo height.
What background colour is required?
Plain white. The border area is measured and flagged if it is uneven. The background is never replaced digitally — a cut-out edge is visible and gets photos rejected.
Is my Uzbekistan photo uploaded anywhere?
No — the crop and the JPEG encode both run in this browser tab. A biometric image of your face is not a file to hand to a web service.
How do I print 35×45 mm at the right size?
Use the print sheet — several copies laid out at true 35×45 mm with faint cut lines — and set the printer to 100% rather than "fit to page". At 600 dpi the file is 827×1063 px, and a driver that shrinks by 3% turns 35 mm into something a ruler catches.
