  • purpose. Your full face must be visible, and the head covering must not cast any shadows on your face
  • Headphones, wireless hands-free devices, or similar items are not acceptable in your photo
  • Eyeglasses are not allowed in visa photos, except in rare circumstances when eyeglasses cannot be removed for medical reasons; e.g., the applicant has recently had ocular surgery, and the eyeglasses are necessary to protect the applicant’s eyes. A medical statement signed by a medical professional/health practitioner must be provided in these cases. If the eyeglasses are accepted for medical reasons:
    –   The frames of the eyeglasses must not cover the eye(s)in the photo of treatment visa for Iran.
    –   There must not be a glare on eyeglasses that obscures the eye(s).
    –   There must not be shadows or refraction from the eyeglasses that obscure the eye(s).
  • Photos digitally scanned from driver’s licenses or other official documents are not acceptable. Also, snapshots, magazine photos, low-quality vending machines or mobile phone photos, and full-length photographs are not acceptable.

Change of Appearance
If your photo(s) or digital image does not reflect your current appearance, even if it is not older than 6 months, the I.R.Iran Embassy or consulate will request that you provide a new photo with your application.
Applicants will be requested to obtain a new photo if they have:

  • Undergone significant facial surgery or trauma
  • Added or removed numerous/large facial piercings or tattoos
  • Undergone a significant amount of weight loss or gain

Generally, if you can still be identified from the photo in your visa application, you will not need to submit a new photo. For example, growing a beard or coloring your hair would not generally be considered a significant change of appearance.

If your child’s appearance under the age of 16 has changed due to the normal aging process, he or she will generally not have to provide a new photo. However, the acceptance of your photo or digital image is at the discretion of the I.R.Iran Embassy or consulate where you apply.

Taking photos of your baby or toddler
When taking a photo of your baby or toddler, no other person should be in the photo, and your child should be looking at the camera with his or her eyes open.

Tip1:
Lay your baby on his or her back on a plain white or off-white sheet. This will ensure your baby’s head is supported and provide a plain background for the photo. Ensure there are no shadows on your baby’s face, especially if you take a picture from above with the baby lying down.

Tip2:
Cover a car seat with a plain white or off-white sheet and take a picture of your child in the car seat. This will also ensure your baby’s head is supported.
