Crop a photo to the size a form asks for

What you need this for

• A square photo for a visa or profile (U.S. visa).
• A passport photo that needs more space above the head (UK passport).
• Rotating a photo that shows up sideways after uploading.

How it works

1. Drop the photo and pick a ratio, exact pixels or a platform.
2. Move and resize the frame; rotate if needed.
3. Download the cropped copy.

All actions in this task

• Centre crop

  Quickly crops to 1:1, 4:3 or 16:9 around the centre.

• Free crop

  Move the frame freely, pick a ratio or set exact pixels.

• Circle crop

  Circle or rounded square for a profile picture, transparent PNG.

• Rotate or mirror

  Turns a sideways photo the right way up.

• Black out areas

  Permanently covers names, numbers or faces before you share the image.

• Text watermark

  Adds a note such as "For this application only" to the image.

• Remove plain background

  Removes an even background, for example behind a signature.

• Brightness and colours

  Adjust brightness, contrast, saturation or make it black and white.

• Social media sizes

  Creates several fitting sizes from one image at once.

Limits

• Cropping removes pixels. If the result falls below a pixel minimum, the check tells you before download.
• This tool doesn't change backgrounds or retouch faces; official photo rules forbid edited photos.
