Thailand e-Visa photo
Thailand's e-Visa application (thaievisa.go.th, Ministry of Foreign Affairs) asks for a recent passport-size photograph taken within the last six months, in JPG or JPEG format, at most 3 MB. The official manual states no pixel size, background or expression rule - the portal offers a downloadable example photograph. This tool converts your photo to a clean JPG inside the 3 MB limit on your device, and lists the few rules that are published.
The official requirements
| File format | JPG or JPEG (this tool delivers JPG) |
|---|---|
| File size | 3 MB maximum |
| Recency | Taken within the last 6 months |
| Style | Passport-size photograph - the portal provides a downloadable example photograph |
| Pixel size | Not stated in the official instructions - no crop is applied here |
| Background and expression | No rules published; a plain light background and neutral expression are the safe choice |

The published Thailand e-Visa instructions specify only the format (JPG/JPEG), the 3 MB size limit and the 6-month recency. This tool therefore does not crop and invents no extra rules: it converts to JPG, confirms the size limit, and reminds you of the published rules. The application portal offers an official example photograph to compare against.
How to do it
- Take a recent passport-style photo: facing the camera, plain light background, neutral expression.
- Upload it below; the tool converts it to JPG without cropping and checks the 3 MB limit.
- Confirm the checklist lines yourself - including that the photo is less than 6 months old.
- Download and upload it in your Thailand e-Visa application.
Common questions
What pixel size does the Thai e-Visa need?
The official instructions state none - only JPG/JPEG format and the 3 MB limit. This tool keeps your photo at full resolution and re-saves it as JPG.
Is there a background rule?
None is published. The portal's example photograph shows a standard passport-style photo, so a plain light background is the safe choice.
Can I use an old photo?
No - the instructions require the photograph to be taken within the last six months.
