A better photo is needed
- Good even lighting, no shadows

- Plain light background
- Camera at eye level, not too close
A document photo is a headache of its own
A Turkmenistan 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 Turkmenistan visa application requires a color photo that meets the specification set by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Turkmenistan and its overseas consulates: 30×40 mm (3×4 cm), printed on a white background, taken within the last six months. Submit a photo that matches the standard exactly and your application moves forward without delays or resubmissions.
Important sizing note you should know before you print. If you search online or visit a commercial photo lab, you may be quoted a larger size — commonly 5×6 cm (50×60 mm). This discrepancy is real and widely reported. The official Turkmen consulate requirement is 3×4 cm (30×40 mm). If a printing service or visa agency requests the larger format, ask them to confirm directly against the current consulate instruction for your country of application. When in doubt, produce the 3×4 cm version first — it is the primary standard stated in official consulate documentation.
- Size: 30×40 mm (709×945 px at 600 dpi) — 3×4 cm format
- Background: plain white (#FFFFFF) — no shadows, no gradients
- Face coverage: face and head must fill 70–80% of the frame height
- Expression: neutral, mouth closed, eyes open and looking directly at the camera
- Glasses: not permitted — remove all eyewear including sunglasses and tinted lenses
- Headwear: not permitted except for religious head coverings worn daily for religious reasons
- Recency: taken within the last 6 months; your current appearance must match the photo
- Color: full color photograph — black-and-white images are not accepted
- Wrong size submitted: providing the 5×6 cm version when the consulate requires 3×4 cm (or vice versa) is one of the most common and easily avoidable rejection reasons — always verify the requirement for your specific consulate
- Glasses worn in the photo: even prescription glasses with clear lenses are not permitted; this is strictly enforced
- Background not fully white: off-white, cream, or any shadow behind the head causes rejection — the background must be pure white (#FFFFFF)
- Face too small or cropped: a face that does not fill at least 70% of frame height, or where the top of the head is cut off, will be refused at document check
To get your photo ready: upload any clear, recent selfie or portrait — it is automatically cropped and adjusted to the exact 30×40 mm consulate standard, with a white background and the correct face coverage. You receive a free watermarked preview before any payment so you can check the result yourself. If you decide to proceed, download the print-ready file. And if the photo is ever rejected by the consulate, we will redo it for free or issue a full refund — you carry no risk.
How we make your Visa photo meet the official standard — Turkmenistan, 30 × 40 mm

- 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, against the exact format 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 — Turkmenistan, 30 × 40 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.
