What this spec actually requires
The Nigeria Immigration Service portal takes a 2×2 inch photo, white background, under 1 MB, and rejects sunglasses and head coverings except for religious reasons.
How the crop is guided — and what is not automated
The frame is locked to the 51:51 ratio and two horizontal guides mark the 60%–72% head band. You position the face; the tool does not guess where it is. That is deliberate: automatic face detection fails on babies, head coverings, glasses and profile photos, and a wrong auto-crop is worse than a manual one because you cannot see the mistake until the photo is rejected.
Backgrounds: solid, not magic
A new background colour is applied by compositing, not by hair-level matting. That works when the source is a transparent PNG (a cut-out) or when the new colour is close to the old one. It will not turn a busy café wall into clean white — for that, photograph against a plain wall in the first place, which is also what the acceptance rules assume.
Printing: 4×6 with no scaling
The print sheet is 1800×1200 px at 300 dpi — a 4×6 inch page with 6 copies and thin cut lines. In the print dialog choose 4×6 paper, 300 dpi, and turn OFF “fit to page”: scaling is the single most common reason a correctly sized photo prints at the wrong size.
Common reasons this photo gets rejected
- File over 1 MB — the portal times out
- Background off-white and uneven
- Ears not visible
Compliance wording
This tool produces a file that matches the published technical specification (dimensions, head ratio, resolution, background). It cannot promise that a specific officer accepts a specific photo, and neither can any tool — so we do not say “guaranteed to pass”.
