The 'Selfie' Trap
Never take a passport photo from a high or low angle. The camera must be at the exact same level as your eyes. A 'downward' angle makes you look smaller, while an 'upward' angle shows the bottom of your chin and nostrils, which biometric scanners hate.
Shoulder Alignment
Sit or stand perfectly straight. Both shoulders must be visible and at even height. Do not 'slouch' or angle your body to the side. You must be square to the camera lens.
The Head Tilt
Ensure your head is not tilted to the left or right, and your chin is not too high or tucked too low. Imagine a straight line running through your pupils—that line must be perfectly horizontal.
