Are you planning a trip to Malaysia? One of the essential steps is ensuring your visa photo meets all the requirements! First things first, your photo should be recent and taken within the last six months. Make sure it’s a close-up shot of your face, with a neutral expression and both eyes open. The standard size is typically 45mm x 35mm, so double-check that before heading to the studio.

Your photo needs a plain white background, as this helps the authorities focus on your facial features. Avoid any filters or edits—natural lighting is key for a clear image. Oh, and don’t forget to keep your head straight and centered in the frame! It’s also important that your shoulders are uncovered, and no hats or head coverings (unless for religious purposes) are allowed.

Once done, ensure the photo quality is high enough for scanning. If unsure, always consult with a professional photographer who specializes in visa photos. Following these guidelines will save you time and hassle during the application process. Safe travels to Malaysia! 🎒✈️
