About the UAE Visa and Passport Photo (35 x 45 mm)
The UAE's ICP asks for a 3.5 x 4.5 cm colour photo with a white background, the face taking up 70 to 80% of the photo. That size is stated for passports; for visas and the Emirates ID the ICP states the white background and face rules without a size, so check the form you are using.
Start from a recent photo taken straight on, in even daylight, with your whole face and the top of your hair in the picture, a neutral expression, eyes open and no glasses glare. The tool finds your face, replaces the background and scales your head to the rule; it never edits your face, since an official photo must show you as you are.
