hello welcome to solsarin.in this post we talk about stamp size photo.
A photo is required for many types of documents in India. There are four major document photo sizes which follow different official measurements:
- passport photo (51 x 51 mm)
- stamp size photo (25 x 20 mm)
- visa size photo (51 x 51 mm)
- ID card size photo (45 x 35 mm)
As a result, a passport is perceived as the most powerful form of identification in the world.so an Indian passport is the most common official document that people take photos for. As a result, the passport photo size instructions for a Indian passport should be memorized.
I would like to mention that according to the Henley Passport Index, the Indian passport is able to grant you access to 58 destinations without needing a visa, which is not a lot compared to other passports included in the ranking.
In order to obtain a visa, a passport-sized photo is required. In India, the stamp-sized photo is used for government-issued identification cards, such as a driving license, an Aadhar card, or a PAN card. stay with solsarin to know more about stamp size phost!
