Common mistakes that lead to rejection

Wearing glasses

中国-澳门 Macao SAR Passport (澳门特区护照) photos do not allow glasses because frames create glare and hide your eyes. Remove your glasses before taking the photo.

Smiling or showing teeth

A smiling expression distorts your facial geometry. Keep a neutral expression with your mouth closed and look directly at the camera.

Ears covered by hair

Both ears must be clearly visible for 中国-澳门 Macao SAR Passport (澳门特区护照) photos. Pull your hair back or tuck it behind your ears before taking the photo.

Using a scanned copy

A scan of a printed photo adds moiré patterns and shadows, and the image quality is too low. Always upload a new digital photo.

Shadows on the face or background

Even the best photo is rejected if your face or the background has visible shadows. Use even, front-facing light and re-shoot if needed.

Incorrect background color

The background must be exactly White (#ffffff). A slightly different shade is the #1 rejection reason. Get ID Ready replaces the background with the exact official color.

How to take a 中国-澳门 passport photo at home

You don't need a studio. With a phone, a plain wall, and even lighting you can take a 中国-澳门 passport photo at home in about 5 minutes.

  1. Find a plain background — Stand 1–2 meters in front of a plain white or light-colored wall with no patterns, shadows, or objects behind you.
  2. Set up even lighting — Use a window or a lamp at eye level, slightly in front of your face. Avoid overhead lights and direct sun to prevent shadows.
  3. Take the photo — Look straight into the camera with a neutral expression, mouth closed. Make sure your face fills about half of the frame and both ears are visible if required.
  4. Upload to Get ID Ready — Upload the photo in your browser. The tool removes the background, centers your face, and sizes it to exactly 33×48 mm.
  5. Run the compliance check — Check the result against the official 中国-澳门 requirements before downloading. Fix any issue in seconds and re-export.
  6. Download and print — Download JPEG, PNG, or a print-ready PDF with 4×6 inch (10×15 cm) sheets containing the exact number of photos.

Where to print 中国-澳门 passport photos

Once your photo passes the compliance check, you can print it at home, at a store kiosk, or via an online print service. Always print at 3.3×4.8 cm on glossy photo paper for best results.

Print at home

Use a photo-quality inkjet or laser printer with glossy photo paper. Select the 4×6 inch (10×15 cm) sheet option in Get ID Ready — it lays out multiple photos on one sheet and prints them at the exact required size.

Print at a store kiosk

Most photo stores and pharmacy kiosks accept a digital file. Bring the PDF sheet from Get ID Ready and choose the passport-photo option. Ask the staff to print at 3.3×4.8 cm and not to auto-resize.

Order online

Upload the downloaded file to an online print service and choose 4×6 inch glossy prints. Many services deliver within 24 hours.
