Visa Photo Size Differs by Destination — Pick the Spec, Create for ¥200
There is no single "visa photo" size. Choose your destination country and AI finishes the photo to that country's spec.
Standard size
51mm × 51mm
Turn a phone shot into a photo that meets this exact spec. Preview the result first — then pay ¥200.
Create with this specWhen you need this photo
This page is for people applying for a foreign visa from Japan. Whether you are heading to the United States, China, Korea, the Schengen area, or elsewhere to study, work, stay long-term, or emigrate, your application will require an ID photo.
Where applications go wrong
Most visa-photo rejections come down to one thing: overlooking how the rules change from country to country.
How to create it for ¥200
With a smartphone and ¥200, you can prepare a visa photo built to your destination's spec.
- 1
First, pick your destination country's spec
Choose the preset for your destination — U.S., China, Korea, Schengen, and more. That sets the size and background to the country's spec. If your country is not listed, check the size in the destination's official guidance. - 2
Shoot on your phone; AI aligns it to that country's spec
Face the camera against a white wall. After you upload, AI removes the background and adjusts your face position to the chosen country's spec to 0.1mm precision (it never reshapes your face). - 3
Print at a convenience store via the QR code in your email
After payment, a QR code arrives by email. At Lawson, FamilyMart, Ministop, and Poplar, hold up the QR for one-tap printing. For 7-Eleven, print using a separate netprint number. An L-size print is about ¥30.
