When applying for a non-immigrant visa, you need to upload digital photos taken in the last six months in order to complete and submit the DS- 160 form. You also need to take this photo with you on the day you go to the embassy or consulate general for an interview. In order to correctly reflect the appearance of this stage, the photos must be taken within the last six months. If you apply for visa renewal, it means that the visa photos provided this time are different from those on the old visa.
Requirements for uploading photos:
1, head size
The head size (from the top of the head to the bottom of the chin) must account for 50% to 70% of the height of the whole photo. The height from the bottom of the photo to eye level must account for 55% to 70% (about 2/3) of the whole photo height.
2, photo size
Photos must be square, that is, the height and width are equal. The minimum size of the photo is 600x600 pixels (height x width). The maximum size is 1200x 1200 pixels (height x width).
