Tips for your Tanzania e-visa photo
- Up to 35 × 45 mm, JPG, 500 KB or less.
- Full head from top of hair to chin.
- Glasses are fine if you wear them every day.
- Stand in front of a plain, light wall, a step away from it so no shadow falls behind you.
- Face a window so light falls evenly on both sides of your face.
- Ask someone to take the photo about 1.5 m away, at your eye level, with space above your head.
