Hur tar man ett passfoto i 5 steg?


Steg 1: Använd en digitalkamera eller en smarttelefon för att ta ett foto

Be någon annan ta fotot åt dig – en selfie godkänns inte för passfotoansökan. Om du har ett stativ, använd det. Ett stativ gör det lättare att hålla kameran stadig och i våg. Avståndet mellan personen och kameran bör vara omkring 1 meter.


Steg 2: Hitta en plats med bra belysning

När du tar fotot bör du vända ansiktet mot ljuset, till exempel ett fint ljust fönster eller en dörr. Detta ger jämn belysning och undviker skuggor i ansiktet och bakgrunden. Ansiktet måste vara jämnt belyst. Det får inte finnas några skuggor eller reflexer i ansiktet.

Obs: Du behöver inte oroa dig för bakgrunden, eftersom vår webbaserade passfotogenerator automatiskt tar bort eller ändrar bakgrunden åt dig.

Steg 3: Klä dig korrekt för ditt passfoto

Bär inte uniform. Ha på dig vanliga vardagskläder på fotot.

Bär inte glasögon. Om du använder glasögon, solglasögon eller tonade glasögon ska du ta av dem för passfotot.

Ditt ansikte måste ändå vara helt synligt. Låt inte håret falla över ansiktet och skymma ögonen. Om du har mycket långa luggar som täcker ögonbrynen bör du fästa upp dem med hårspännen. Det är bäst om öronen också syns, men det gör inte att fotot blir underkänt.

Hattar är inte tillåtna på passfoton, förutom religiös huvudbeklädnad som en huvudduk eller kippa som du bär varje dag.

Steg 4: Posera för passfotot

Titta rakt in i kameran med ansiktet rakt framåt. Huvudet får inte lutas eller vridas.

Båda öronen ska synas, eller båda ansiktskonturerna om håret täcker öronen.

Axlarna ska synas, och det ska finnas tillräckligt med utrymme runt huvudet för att kunna beskära fotot.

Placera kameran på samma höjd som huvudet.

Steg 5: Ha ett neutralt ansiktsuttryck

Myndigheterna föredrar att du har ett neutralt ansiktsuttryck på dina passfoton.

Att le eller ha munnen öppen är vanligtvis inte tillåtet, särskilt inte enligt de nya internationella passreglerna.
