미국인을 위한 캄보디아 eVisa 사진 요구사항: 2026 사양 + 집에서 직접 촬영하기 가이드
흰색 배경, 중립적 표정, 안경 금지, 2MB 이하의 JPEG 파일. 이것이 2026년 미국인을 위한 캄보디아 eVisa 사진 사양의 거의 전부입니다 — 그리고 집에서 iPhone으로 단 2분 만에 촬영할 수 있습니다. 정확한 수치와 첫 시도에서 통과하는 루틴을 소개합니다.
What are the Cambodia eVisa photo requirements for US citizens?
A recent (last 6 months) passport-style color photo against a plain white or off-white background, showing your full face, head centered, with a neutral expression — no smile, no glasses, no hats or head coverings except for religious reasons. Submit it as a JPEG under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger and roughly square. You do not need a professional booth or a printed photo: a phone camera against a white wall in daylight produces a compliant image, which is how most American applicants do it. The most common reasons a photo gets flagged are smiles, glasses, off-white walls, shadows behind the head, and low resolution.
핵심 요약
- The Cambodia eVisa photo must be recent (last 6 months), passport-style, on a plain white background, with your full face visible and a neutral expression — no smile, no glasses, no hats.
- Submit a JPEG under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger and roughly square — the upload validator reads pixels and file size, not a printed 2×2 inch card.
- You do not need a drugstore photo booth. A phone camera against a white wall in daytime is how most American applicants do it, and it passes when you follow a short routine.
- The top auto-flags are smiles, glasses of any kind, off-white or colored walls, shadows behind the head, and resolution under 600 pixels — all of them avoidable once you know the list.
- If a photo is flagged, you get a clear email listing what to re-upload, free resubmission is included, and the 3-business-day clock keeps running once you reply.
The Cambodia eVisa photo spec at a glance
The Cambodia eVisa photo is the single field most likely to cost American applicants a day. Not because the rules are unusual — they are almost identical to a US passport photo — but because the upload validator is picky about exactly the things people forget: a stray smile, thin-framed glasses, a wall that looks white to your eye but reads cream to the camera. Get those right and the photo clears on the first try. Get one wrong and your file bounces back to your inbox for a retake.
Here is the entire specification in one breath. A recent color photo, taken in the last 6 months, passport-style, against a plain white or off-white background. Your full face visible and centered, eyes open and looking at the lens, neutral expression with no smile and no teeth. No glasses, no sunglasses, no hats or head coverings except those worn daily for religious reasons. Submit it as a JPEG, under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger and roughly square. That is the whole list.
This guide breaks every one of those down — the exact dimensions and file format, the background and lighting rules that trip up the most Americans, a two-minute iPhone method, and the nine flags that get a photo rejected so you can sidestep them before you upload. When you have a clean shot ready, you can apply in a few minutes. For the wider picture — cost, processing, documents — start at our Cambodia visa for United States citizens hub and work down from there.
Exact size, dimensions, and file format
The thing to understand first: you are uploading a digital file, not printing a card. Americans who grew up handing a photographer a 2×2 inch print sometimes overthink this. Cambodian Immigration reads the image you submit by its pixels and its file size, so those are the numbers that matter. The physical "passport size" you may have seen quoted is just shorthand for the framing — head and shoulders, face filling most of the frame.
Target a square or near-square image of at least 600×600 pixels. Larger is fine; the validator wants enough resolution to read your face clearly, and it rejects anything noticeably below that. Crop so your head and the top of your shoulders fill the frame, with a little space above your hair — the same crop you would use for a US passport photo. Save it as a JPEG. The file must come in under 2 MB, which is comfortably above what a cropped phone photo weighs, so size is rarely the problem once you have cropped properly.
Two format traps catch Americans specifically. The first is HEIC: modern iPhones save photos in Apple’s HEIC format by default, and the upload form wants a standard JPEG. The second is an oversized, uncropped original straight off a high-resolution camera, which can exceed the file limit before you trim it. Both are quick fixes inside the Photos app. Our deep dive on
자주 묻는 질문
What are the Cambodia eVisa photo requirements for US citizens?
A recent (last 6 months) passport-style color photo on a plain white or off-white background, full face visible and centered, neutral expression with no smile, no glasses, and no hats except daily religious head coverings. Submit it as a JPEG under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger and roughly square. A phone photo against a white wall in daylight meets every one of these, which is how most American applicants do it.
What size and file format does the Cambodia eVisa photo need to be?
Submit a JPEG, under 2 MB, ideally 600×600 pixels or larger and roughly square, cropped to head and shoulders. The application reads the digital file by its pixels and file size, not a printed inch measurement, so resolution and format matter more than any physical dimension. Avoid HEIC (the iPhone default) and PNG — convert to JPEG before you upload.
Can I take the Cambodia eVisa photo on my iPhone?
Yes, and most American applicants do. Use the rear camera, hold the phone in portrait at eye level, stand about two feet from a plain white wall, and use daylight from a window. Keep a neutral expression, no glasses, no hat. Set the camera to save JPEG (Settings, Camera, Formats, Most Compatible) or convert afterward, crop square, and check it is at least 600 pixels per side. Do not apply filters or portrait blur.
Does the Cambodia eVisa photo background have to be white?
It must be plain and light — white or off-white, with no patterns, furniture, or doorframes behind you. Lighting is the catch: a white wall shot under warm evening light reads cream and gets flagged. Shoot in daytime with natural light, stand about two feet from the wall to avoid casting a shadow, and keep the window in front of or beside you rather than behind.
Can I wear glasses in my Cambodia eVisa photo?
No. Glasses of any kind must come off, including thin frames and reading glasses, and there is no medical exemption in the current spec. Take the photo without them and put them back on. After removing them, let your eyes settle so they look open and natural rather than squinting, since a squint can read as a closed-eye flag.
Why do Cambodia eVisa photos get rejected?
The most common flags are a smile, glasses, an off-white or colored wall, shadows behind the head, resolution under 600 pixels, a hat, the wrong file format (HEIC or PNG instead of JPEG), an old photo, and heavy filters or beauty smoothing. Each is avoidable once you know the list, and a flagged photo is a same-day fix rather than a fresh application.

Thailand to Cambodia in 2026: Why You Must Fly (Land Borders Closed) for Americans

Here is how the Bangkok-to-Siem Reap and Bangkok-to-Phnom Penh routes work, the Cambodia eVisa you need before you board, and why the old Poipet overland plan no longer exists.
