Will this passport photo be accepted?

Name change to keep this separate from my main account.

Tried to get a passport picture for DD. The best one I got is this.... will it be accepted with her tongue sticking out? Guidelines say children under 6 don't need to have a plain expression but I think they mean they can smile.

You can upload pictures if you do it online and it tells you if it's good or bad

So cute!!!!

MummytoE · 26/02/2025 19:05

When you apply on line it tells you likelihood of it being accepted

Gasp0deTheW0nderD0g · 26/02/2025 19:05

Apply online. The picture will be rejected immediately if it isn't OK and you can have another go if necessary.

If its not accepted then they will just ask you to take another one

I think possibly not but worth a shot online. I’ve always found going to snappy snaps or similar place much less stressful. They have the right set up, background and so on and will keep taking until they have an acceptable digital image.

It’s partly her (cute) expression but also the background too. Looks quite textured.

Timpsons are very good at taking baby photos

ChocHotolate · 26/02/2025 19:11

The rules regarding baby photos are more relaxed than those for adults, this may well be acceptable. As others have said, upload & try

Was going to say this, I think her face is fine but the muslin is an issue. Do you know how to remove a background and put white on instead? If not I can do it for you ☺️

Here you are (did this with both of mine and they went through)

You know they'll get DD to pull that face at every passport control I so would

Overthebow · 26/02/2025 19:31

Can you get one without her tongue sticking out? It’s a bit of a strange expression for a passport photo, she must have her tongue in most of the time so take one when she’s looking normally?

TwoLeftSocksWithHoles · 26/02/2025 19:32

I think it will be OK.

Sticking one's tongue out when having a photo taken is 'de regueur' these days.

He has just started embracing the practice rather earlier than one might expect!

I find the whole idea of baby passport photos hilarious 🤣

Babies just look like babies.

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 26/02/2025 21:55

Oh what a cutie op! Congratulations ❤️

Holibobs25 · 27/02/2025 18:27

Went with a moreserious (boring) one instead. The original said her head was too tilted but thankfully nothing about the background
