Applying for a Jordan visa — through the Ministry of Interior's online e-visa system or a Jordanian embassy abroad — and need a photo to go with it? The Ministry of Foreign Affairs' own visa application form has a dedicated "Applicant Photo" box, and applicants commonly prepare theirs at 35×45 mm with a plain white background. Upload an existing photo of yourself, and IDPhotoBy crops and resizes it to that format and checks the background for you.
This page is for the Jordan visa photo specifically — not the Jordan passport photo, which is a different document on a different channel (details below).
Compare your photo against this list:
- Size: 35×45 mm (3.5×4.5 cm) — about 1.38×1.77 inches.
- Plain white background, with no shadows or objects behind you.
- Head framing: chin-to-crown around 32–36 mm within the frame, so your face and shoulders sit clearly inside the photo with reasonable space around your head.
- A neutral expression, facing the camera directly — the same general framing used across ID-style photos.
- Even, natural lighting with no strong shadows or glare, and no tinted or reflective glasses if you can avoid them.
You do not need to measure or crop the photo yourself — upload a clear, recent photo of yourself and IDPhotoBy fits it to size and checks that the background reads as plain white.
This page prepares the photo for a Jordan entry visa — the Visit Visa applied for through the Ministry of Interior's e-visa system or a Jordanian embassy/consulate abroad. It is a different document, with a different issuing process, from the Jordan e-passport (issued by the Civil Status and Passports Department, CSPD, for Jordanian citizens). Both happen to use the same 35×45 mm frame and white background, but they are separate applications through separate authorities — check that you're on the right page for the application you're actually submitting.
Jordan's Ministry of Interior lists the Visit Visa among the categories you can apply for electronically through its e-visa system (eservices.moi.gov.jo/MOI_EVISA), run jointly with the Public Security Directorate's Residence and Border Directorate. If you're applying from outside Jordan, the alternative route is a Jordanian embassy or consulate, using the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' own paper application form — which includes a dedicated box for your photo. Either way, IDPhotoBy only prepares the photo file itself; it does not submit the application or handle any other documents the form asks for.
Neither the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' visa application form nor the Ministry of Interior's e-visa pages publish an exact photo size or background figure for this document — the application form simply asks for a photo, without stating dimensions. The 35×45 mm, plain white background figures used on this page reflect the format that's widely and consistently used for this document, not a number published by a Jordanian government page. If your specific application asks for something different, follow what it states.
Steps:
- Upload a recent, well-lit photo of yourself, facing the camera directly, ideally against a plain background.
- IDPhotoBy crops and resizes it to 35×45 mm and checks that the background reads as plain white.
- Preview the result — check the framing of your face and shoulders, and the background.
- Download the finished photo as a digital file, ready to attach to your e-visa application or bring to your embassy appointment.
IDPhotoBy prepares the photo file only — it does not offer background blur or background replacement as a marketing feature, does not retouch or smooth your face, and cannot guarantee that any authority will accept the result. The decision always rests with the Ministry of Interior, the embassy, or consulate reviewing your application.
