Who needs this photo
Spain is on the e-Visa list.
Spanish passport holders can apply for India’s e-Visa (tourist, business, medical and other types) online, without going to an embassy. The photo is uploaded during the application.
Residents of Spain with another nationality can use it too if their country is on the e-Visa list. Check the list on the official site before you apply.
A regular paper visa uses a different form. If you also need printed photos, the print template lays them out on a 10 × 15 cm sheet.
Why get it checked
A rejected photo delays the e-Visa.
The form refuses files that aren’t square or are too big. If an officer later finds the photo unclear, with shadows or with glasses, the application can be sent back for a new one.
The checked photo reviews framing, head size, background, lighting and sharpness with the e-Visa rules and, when needed, makes the background white. You see the watermarked result before you pay; then you download it without the watermark, from €7.99.
If the photo is rejected for not meeting the requirements, we refund you: refund policy.

Frequently asked questions
What size is the India e-Visa photo?
The site asks for a square JPEG between 10 KB and 1 MB, without a fixed pixel size. The file you download is 600 × 600 px, inside those limits.
Can I wear glasses in the India visa photo?
No. The e-Visa rules ask for a full face with eyes open and without spectacles.
What background does the India visa photo need?
Plain light-coloured or white, with no shadows and no border. A white background is the safest choice.
Is it the same as a 35 × 45 mm passport photo?
No. The e-Visa photo is square (35 × 35 mm when printed), while most passports and visas use 35 × 45 mm. Choose the India visa in the tool so it’s cropped square.
Can I make it for free?
Yes: cropping it square is free and doesn’t change the background or check the photo. The checked photo costs from €7.99 and you only pay if you like the result.
