A better photo is needed

- Plain light background
- Camera at eye level, not too close
A document photo is a headache of its own
A Togo Visa photo has strict requirements, and a mistake costs time and money. We’ll show you how to pass on the first try.
It gets rejected
Wrong size, background or cropping — and the system returns the application.
Expensive and slow
A trip to a photo studio means a queue, time and €7–12 for a reshoot.
Confusing requirements
Exact size, head height, light background, facial expression — easy to get wrong.
Redo it all over
Rejected — take another photo, pay and submit again. Round and round.

Your Visa photo: what matters
A correctly prepared photo is the first checkpoint of every Togo e-visa application. The official portal voyage.gouv.tg accepts a single digital image that must meet a precise photographic standard — the right dimensions, a clean white background, and a neutral expression with no smile. Getting this right on the first upload avoids delays and resubmissions.
Togo uses a fully digital e-visa process, which means there is no embassy counter and no agent to wave through an approximate photo. The portal validates the image automatically. One detail worth knowing: while most official sources specify a white background, some applicant reports mention plain light gray also being accepted. To eliminate any ambiguity, use pure white — it is the declared preference and it removes the only variable that is within your control. The file must be JPEG or PNG, no larger than 5 MB, and the image should be at least 600 × 600 px at the point of upload, even though the standard print size is 35 × 45 mm (827 × 1063 px at 600 dpi).
- Size: 35 × 45 mm (827 × 1063 px)
- Background: plain white (#FFFFFF) — the officially preferred colour
- Face coverage: your face must fill 70–80 % of the frame height
- Expression: neutral, mouth closed — no smile
- Glasses: not permitted
- Head covering: only for documented religious reasons
- Recency: taken within the last six months
- File format: JPEG or PNG, maximum 5 MB
- Common reasons photos are rejected for the Togo e-visa:
- Background is not a clean white or very light plain colour — shadows, gradients, or coloured walls behind the subject are flagged
- Smile or open mouth — the portal requires a strictly neutral expression with the mouth closed
- Glasses on the face, even if clear or lightly tinted
- Photo cropped too loosely, leaving the face below 70 % of the frame height — a common mistake when uploading an unedited smartphone selfie
Upload a clear, well-lit photo of yourself and the photo is automatically cropped and sized to the exact 35 × 45 mm official standard, with a white background applied where needed. Before you pay anything, you receive a free watermarked preview to confirm the result looks right. If you are satisfied, you download the print-ready file. If the photo is ever rejected by the Togo e-visa portal, we redo it free of charge or issue a full refund — you only pay for a photo you can actually use.
How we make your Visa photo meet the official standard — Togo, 35 × 45 mm
Every photo is prepared against the official requirements for your document — not a generic template. Here is what that means in practice:
- 1We crop and size your photo to the exact millimetre and pixel dimensions the authority requires.
- 2We check the background, head position, gaze and lighting, and flag glasses or head coverings that are not allowed.
- 3We match the rules to the specific document and country, citing the official source of those requirements.
- 4If anything does not meet the standard, you get a free re-do or your money back.

A digital photo is normal, and it gets accepted — Togo, 35 × 45 mm
You do not need a trip to a studio. Authorities accept any Visa photo that meets the official requirements — what matters is the standard, not where the photo was made. We match that standard exactly.
The standard is what counts
Officials check your photo against the rules — size, background, head position and lighting — not where you took it.
Part of official processes
Many passport, visa and ID services let you upload a digital photo or submit a print — both are fine when they meet the spec.
Same result as a studio
We prepare your file to the exact official measurements, so it is accepted just like a professional studio photo.
And you are covered
If a photo is ever rejected for not meeting the requirements, we redo it for free or refund you.
How to take a good photo
The most common reasons a Togo Visa photo gets rejected — and how to avoid them. Compare good and bad shots.
1Format and freshness
A color photo taken no more than 6 months ago.
2Lighting and background
Even light with no shadows on the face; a plain light background, without glare.
3Head position
Face head-on, head centered, no tilt or turn.
4Facial expression
Neutral, mouth closed, eyes open and looking at the camera.
5Glasses and accessories
No glasses (especially sunglasses); eyes fully visible, without glare.
6Headwear
Only for religious reasons and not covering the face — the face fully visible.
7Clothing
Ordinary everyday clothes; no uniforms or face-covering clothing.
