What is a Morocco Passport photo?
A Moroccan passport photo is a 35×45 mm colour print on a light blue, white or light grey background; Morocco accepts all three. The gaze must be fixed on the lens, with the face visible from chin to forehead and both edges of the face showing.
The spec comes from the DGSN's passeport.ma portal: no shadows, no decorative headwear, untinted lenses only without thick frames. One photo files with the application; consular trámites often ask for extra copies.
One photo accompanies the application filed at the arrondissement or consulate. Check your framing, lighting and background, then print the 35×45 mm sheet.

Frequently asked questions
What background colours are accepted?
Light blue, white or light grey, uniformly lit with no shadows behind the head. Pick whichever contrasts best with your hair and clothing; the check measures uniformity either way.
What are the framing rules?
35×45 mm, face centered and straight, gaze fixed on the lens, eyes open, chin-to-forehead and both face edges fully visible, neutral expression, recent.
Are glasses and headwear allowed?
Untinted lenses only, with no thick frames and no reflections. Decorative headwear is banned; religious coverings must leave the face fully visible.
How many photos do I need?
The passport application lists one photo; consulates and related trámites (CNIE, visas) often ask for more. The sheet gives you four identical copies.
How we handle compliance
- We check your photo against the official rules. We never retouch your face, and we only normalize the background where the destination country permits it.
- Every requirement is cited from official government sources, with the verification date shown on the page.
- What you get is a report of measurements, not a guarantee. Final acceptance always rests with the issuing authority.
