Is Wearing Earrings in a Passport Photo Permitted?

Yes, wearing earrings in a passport photo is permitted. However, there are a few considerations to keep in mind:

  • Size and Style: The earrings should not be overly large or distracting. Subtle, smaller earrings are preferable.
  • No Reflection or Glare: The earrings should not cause any reflection or glare that might obscure your face.
  • Facial Visibility: Your full face must be clearly visible. Earrings should not obstruct any part of your face.
  • Consistency with Appearance: If you regularly wear earrings, it's fine to wear them in your passport photo.

Remember, the primary goal of a passport photo is to provide a clear, accurate representation of your appearance for identification purposes. Accessories like earrings are allowed as long as they don't hinder this goal.
