IMPORTANT INFORMATION on passport, visa and diversity immigrant visa lottery photo services

Passport and visa photographs are legal documents that serve a purpose of Photo Identification (photo ID) and are used to present an official document holder. Generally, a photo ID shows only the facial attributes of the document holder.

Some countries, excluding the United States (US) and United Kingdom (UK), use a single government issued picture identification card as a proof of age or citizenship.

Each country’s photo requirements for passport and visa documents differ from each other and biometric requirements and specifications must be carefully followed to ensure that a legal document is approved by an embassy or a consulate service.

The biometric identification photo documents are processed by the facial recognition, fingerprint recognition, and iris recognition systems used in the Board Control Systems. Without the exact specifications applied to photos, the system may fail, and therefore each photo of an applicant must be reviewed by the staff of embassies and consulates to determine which photos are rejected or accepted.

Rejected visa and passport photos significantly delay processing of the immigration and travel applications. When an applicant received a rejection notice due to an improperly formatted visa or passport photo (including the DV Visa pictures), the application waiting period is often reset to its initial state, meaning an applicant may need to wait a prolonged amount of time to get a visa or passport approval.

Embassies and consulates prefer passport and visa photos and digital pictures to be taken by a professional legal document photographer. There are professional photographers who specialize in different photograph types. A professional legal document photographer regularly follows the new updated photo specifications and receives updates from immigration and border control institutions.

It is also worth attention that although companies such as CVS, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, UPS stores and FedEx Office and Print, Kinko, Mail and Package stores are attempting to monetize on passport photo pictures, these photographs are not taken by professional legal photographers, and taken by the instant picture cameras. The photos taken by the companies that do not specialize in national and international passport photography are often rejected.

At Vaskevich Studios, we have observed that about 20-30% (US passport and visa) and 70-90% (Foreign passport and visa) pictures are rejected due to improperly taken photos by non-professional and non-certified vendors such as

  • Mail and Package stores
  • Drug Stores
  • Shopping Supercenters
  • Office Supply Stores
  • Photo Studios not specializing in legal passport and visa photo documents.
  • Various online passport printing services

Although the above vendors clearly indicate that they do not provide international passport pictures, mistakes occur and document applicants use these services just to find out later that their immigration and travel documents are not accepted due to a faulty photographs.

Embassies and consulates strongly advise against using Mail and Package stores, Drug Stores, Shopping Supercenters and photographers without legal photography expertise to be used for immigration and travel application photos.

(!) Important Diversity Visa (DV) Lottery Notes
The online photo validating tool for the DV, does not actually check for proper image bio-metrics. It only checks if the photo is 600×600 pixels in size and under 240kb. DV photo documents must fully comply with specifications, which not only include background tone, picture size and lighting quality but precise bio-metric facial measurements. This is the most common issue with unqualified vendors that provide photo services and use online validation tool to do the image check without actually confirming that the image was accurately produced.

The US government agency handling the DV lottery application processing may not ask you for another photo if it was not properly produced at the time of application. These applications can be SILENTLY disqualified and the applicants will not receive a reason for not winning the lottery.

The most common reasons due to which photographic documents are rejected are:

  1. Usage of a while plain background when a pastel-shaded or colored background is required
  2. Improper image bio-metrics
  3. Editing or retouching of the photos in any way is not allowed
  4. Incorrect size of the pictures and size of the face as specified in millimeters from chin to top of the head
  5. Photo paper type not corresponding to the legal document requirements
  6. Photos that are older than specified on the application
  7. Usage of inkjet and laser printers (not allowed)
  8. Improper distance from the contours of the head to the edge of the frame,
  9. Insufficient contrast between the background, the subject’s face, hair and clothing
  10. Improper image and background exposure
  11. Presence of shadows in the background
  12. Facial expressions that are not neutral
  13. Reflections in glasses that obscure eyes or usage of tinted glasses
  14. Hair styles that significantly obscure ears and face
  15. Images that do not provide a full frontal view of the head, neck and top of the shoulders
  16. Usage of headwear such as hats, wigs, turbans and scarves (unless for religious reasons)
  17. Appearance of parent’s hands or methods to support a baby or a toddler in the pictures

Note: Vaskevich Studios strictly follows ALL of the above requirements. If your travel and immigration document is important and time sensitive, Vaskevich Studios offers a 100% guarantee on all pictures taken at no additional cost. We also follow application regulations for firearm permits, medical license, gun license pictures and other legal certification documents.
