US Visa Photo (DS-160) — 2x2 inch, 600x600 px

The portal rejects photos without saying which rule failed — this checker shows you every check individually and fixes them automatically.

Questions
Why does the DS-160 portal keep rejecting my photo?+
Most failures are technical: file over 240 KB, iPhone photos saved in Display P3 color instead of sRGB, HEIC format instead of JPEG, or head size outside 50-69%. Our tool re-encodes to sRGB JPEG under 240 KB automatically and shows the head-height check live.
Can I use the same photo for my printed 2x2 visa photo?+
Yes. The paid bundle includes a 2x2 inch print-ready file at 300 DPI and a 4x6 sheet you can print at any pharmacy for about $0.39.
