What background color is required for passport photos?

Most countries require a plain white or off-white background (RGB 255, 255, 255 or near-white). Some countries such as the USA and UK accept light gray. Always check your country's official passport photo requirements before submission.

Will the AI background removal work on any photo?

The tool works best with clear, well-lit photos where the face is visible and the subject contrasts with the existing background. Dark, blurry, or heavily shadowed photos may produce less accurate edges — good lighting at the time of the original photo significantly improves results.

Is my passport photo uploaded to a server?

No. All AI processing happens entirely in your browser using a local model. No photo data is sent to any server at any point — your image never leaves your device.

Can I choose a background color other than white?

Yes. You can select white, off-white (cream), light gray, or fully transparent. Note that most official passport requirements specify white or off-white — always verify your country's requirements before downloading.

Tips:

•Most countries require a plain white or off-white background (RGB 255, 255, 255 or near-white)
•Wear clothing that contrasts with the white background — avoid white or very light-colored tops
•Even lighting during the original photo helps the AI detect face and background edges accurately
•After replacing the background, use the Crop tool to ensure the final image still meets official dimensions
