Netherlands Pasfoto Generator — Official 35×45mm Fotomatrix
Format compliant portraits for Dutch passport, identity card, and driver's license applications.
The Dutch Government (Rijksoverheid) enforces the official Fotomatrix Model 2020 across all municipalities (gemeenten). A critical distinction from general European standards is the specific face height requirement: for applicants aged 11 and older, the head from chin to crown must measure strictly between 26 mm and 30 mm (58% to 67% of vertical height), with face width between 16 mm and 20 mm.
Our editor integrates the official Dutch Fotomatrix measurement bands so you can verify both face height and width before printing your pasfoto.
Official Dutch Pasfoto Standards (Rijksoverheid)
- Dimensions: Exactly 35 mm wide by 45 mm high (35 × 45 mm, 413 × 531 px at 300 DPI).
- Face Length (11+ yrs): 26 mm to 30 mm from chin to top of skull (excluding hair bulk).
- Face Width: 16 mm to 20 mm between cheek contours.
- Background: Plain, uniform light grey or light blue (light grey preferred by most gemeenten).
- Facial Expression: Neutral expression with closed mouth and eyes looking straight into the camera lens.
- Positioning: Head centered vertically and horizontally, with shoulders and neck visible.
Worked Example: Sizing a Pasfoto for a Dutch Municipality Appointment
Consider an applicant preparing photos for a Dutch passport renewal at the gemeente:
- Input Image: A 2700 × 3600 pixel portrait captured in balanced room light (2.9 MB JPEG).
- Standard Selected: Netherlands Pasfoto (35 × 45 mm, Fotomatrix Model 2020).
- Matrix Alignment: The user moves the crop guides to set the chin-to-crown measurement at 28 mm and width at 18 mm against a light grey background.
- Export Output: A 300 DPI photo card formatted to 10 × 15 cm with 6 identical pasfoto cutouts ready for kiosk printing.
Honest Architecture: Client Matrix Tools and Stateless Segmentation
How Dutch pasfoto processing functions:
- Local Fotomatrix Calibration: Dutch 26–30 mm face height guides, 35 × 45 mm aspect ratio enforcement, and multi-up sheet tiling execute on your computer's CPU using HTML5 Canvas.
- Optional Cloud Segmentation: When using automated background isolation, the image travels securely to a transient GPU container solely to generate the alpha mask, with zero permanent storage or dataset recording.
