Australia Passport - Passeport Australien - Australie

Choi-Photos est spécialisé pour la prise de vue et le tirage des photographies d'identité australiennes destinés aux ressortissants australiens habitants à Marseille et en Provence Alpes Côtes d'Azur.

When lodging a passport application, you must provide two recent identical colour photos of yourself with your completed application form.


For a new application, one of these photos must be endorsed on the back with the words "This is a true photo of (your full name)" and then signed by your guarantor.


For a renewal application, which is the one page form, one of your photos must have your name printed on the back.


The photos must be no more than six months old.


The following guidelines will help you provide suitable photographs so that your application is not delayed by having to submit new photographs in the required format.

The basics

• 45–50mm (1 ³/_⁴" -1 ¹⁵/_¹⁶" )  high and 35–40mm (1 ³/_⁸" -1 ⁹/_¹⁶" ) wide
• show head and top of shoulders close up, so the measurement of the face from the bottom of the chin to the crown (i.e. top of head without hair) is between 32mm and 36mm (1 ¹/_⁴" -1 ⁷/_¹⁶" ).

Too close	Too far away	Too dark
Too light	Ink marked/ creased

Quality and style

• print on high-quality paper and use high resolution
• show natural skin tones and have appropriate brightness and contrast, no flash reflections and no red eye
• show you with a neutral expression and mouth closed
• have a plain, lightcoloured background (e.g. white, cream or
  pale blue)
• show you looking directly at the camera
• show you with no hair across your eyes
• show both edges of your face clearly
• not show you looking over one shoulder (portrait style) or with
  head tilted

Glasses

If you usually wear glasses, you do not have to wear them for your passport photograph, but
if you do they must show your eyes clearly:

• no dark tinted lenses which restrict a clear view of your eyes 
• no flash reflection off the lenses
• frames should not cover any part of your eyes
• lighter framed glasses are preferable if you have them.

Children and babies

Photos of children and babies should:

• show the child or baby awake, looking straight at the camera with mouth closed and no pacifier 
• show the child or baby's face clearly without any other objects (including a parent's supporting hand) visible
• show the child or baby without any hair across the eyes.
