Palau Passport Photos and Visa Photo Requirements – Rules, Guidelines, and Specifications
While the information below is complete, you will need some additional details regarding the rules and guidelines that govern a valid passport photo. Remember that failure to submit an adequate passport photo is one of the most common causes of rejection, and we want nothing more than for you to avoid that. Here is what you should know before you take your own passport photo or visa photo:
- We already stated that the background of your passport photo must be white. However, it should not contain shadows and patterns either. The ideal situation is for you to take your picture against a white wall. If one is not available, take a white sheet and hang it on a wall. It will work just fine.
- In your passport photo or visa photo, you cannot appear with shadows on your face, which is why a frontal source of light is the best. Make sure that the light is not too bright or too dark, either.
- When you are ready to take your passport photo, keep your head straight. Your face must be forward. You are not allowed to tilt or rotate your head in any direction. Portrait-style photos will not be accepted.
- It is forbidden to smile or make any other facial expressions when you take your passport photo or visa photo. Maintain a neutral expression during the photo session.
- Your eyes cannot be obscured by anything. Glasses are acceptable only if they have clear frames. Even so, make sure to check the picture for flash reflection. Needless to say, you cannot wear sunglasses or eyeglasses with tinted lenses when you take your passport photo or visa photo.
- Headwear is not acceptable in a passport photo or visa photo. Nevertheless, you can keep it on for religious or cultural purposes. You just have to be careful so that your face is perfectly distinguishable from the bottom of your chin to the top of your forehead. No shadows should be on your face due to your headwear.
- You do not have to shave your beard is that is how you look every day. The passport photo or visa photo should reflect your day-to-day appearance.

- Photograph your child when he/she is awake. The eyes must be clearly seeable.
- Photographing your child in a car seat means that you have to cover the backrest of the chair with a white layer. The white background is necessary for kids too.
- For the exact same purpose, please place a white sheet underneath the child if you want to put him/her on his/her back. This applies when you want to take the picture from above.
- If you're going to hold your baby while someone else is taking the passport photo, remember that not even your hands can be in the shot. Only the child can appear in the picture.
- Headwear, pacifier, and other objects must be removed from the shot.
