Can I make a passport photo without Photoshop?
Yes. Upload a photo and the Photo Studio removes the background, crops the photo so the head size and eye line meet the rule for your document (India, the US, the UK, Schengen, Canada, Australia, China, Japan and more), checks it, and lays out a print sheet for any photo counter.
Does it check that the photo meets the rules?
Yes. It measures head height and eye height against the selected document and checks that the face is centred and straight, the eyes are open, the mouth is closed, the light on the face is even and the photo is sharp and detailed enough to print. Each problem is explained, most with a one-click fix.
Is my photo uploaded for the AI background removal?
No. The face and person detectors run inside your browser. They download once and then work offline; your photo never leaves the device.
Can it remove the background from a product or a pet?
Yes. Photos without a face are treated as objects: the main subject (or every subject on a plain backdrop) is picked out automatically, and you can tap to add or remove parts. Download a transparent PNG of the whole photo.
How do I make a passport photo under 100 KB?
In the Photo Studio's Export tab, set a KB cap. The tool reduces JPEG quality step by step until the file fits the limit, which is what most government and university portals require. The US DS-160 preset sets 600 by 600 pixels and 240 KB for you.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Passport Photo Maker & Background Remover runs as JavaScript inside your own browser tab. Your file is read from your device into browser memory and the result is saved back as a download, so nothing is transmitted.
