Clearwater Digital UK Passport Photos
UK digital passport photos have very strict guidelines. At Jonathan Fanning Photography, we are familiar with these requirements and can provide you with passport photos tailored to their exact specifications.
The whole process takes approximately 15 minutes to take the photo, resize it for the digital specifications and then email it to you. During your application process, you will be asked to upload your passport photo or provide a code. Please note that the code is only for “photobooth” type passport photo businesses and with our process, you will just upload it during your renewal application process. We 100% guarantee passport photo acceptance.

How do I upload my new UK Passport Photo?
After a few questions at the very beginning of your application renewal process; you will be prompted to upload your new passport photo. Once you upload your passport photo the system will automatically scan your photo to insure that it meets all photo requirements. Be sure to do this from a laptop or a desktop as mobile devices often resize image files.
