Short answer
A Australian citizenship photo must be 45×35 mm on a plain light-coloured background, with the face 32–36 mm from chin to crown. Aim for at least 600×750 px, a neutral expression, even lighting and no shadows. Australian citizenship photos are 45×35 mm; two identical copies are usually required.
Snapport lets you take it at home, set a compliant background and crop to the exact spec, so a self-taken photo still meets the requirement. Always confirm the current official rule before you submit.
What to look for before choosing
- Exact spec: 45×35 mm (the #1 rejection reason is the wrong size/crop).
- Background: a plain light-coloured background with no shadows.
- Head/face sizing: the face 32–36 mm from chin to crown.
- Neutral expression, eyes open, no glasses glare or head covering.
- A recent, high-resolution colour photo; verify the latest official rule before submitting.

- Stand against a plain, evenly lit wall.
- Take the shot head-on with Snapport.
- Set the background to plain light-coloured background.
- Crop/export to 45×35 mm.

| Pricing model | Check whether useful features require a subscription, a one-time unlock, or neither. | The cheapest app on day one may not be cheapest after a year. |
| Privacy model | Prefer on-device work when the content is sensitive. | Private documents, resumes, study data, and family content deserve careful handling. |
