Canada: take passport photos or visa photos at home

You have your Canadian visa, temporary resident visa or permanent resident visa expiring? Or your Canadian passport is getting older than 10 years? Whenever you need to get a new document, you also need at least one photograph for it. And how can you take a passport photo in Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa, Montreal, Calgary, Edmonton when all facilities are getting closed for the lockdown? The answer is simple: online! Besides, that's faster than going to a photo-studio or pharmacy.

The second question: how can you make a passport photo by yourself being sure that it matches all official requirements? Relax: for this purpose you don't have to be a Photographer of The Year 2020 or a photoshop guru. Just follow our simple guide.

How can I take a passport photo by myself?

You don't need a professional camera, a smartphone is more than enough. You don't even need to have a plain white wall, as Visafoto.com will automatically change any background. But a tripod or selfie stick will be handy, as the distance between model and camera should be about 4-9 feet (1.5-3 meters).
