**

What size is recommended for the photo?

The standard Ivory Coast visa photo size is 2 by 2 inches, the same as for every visa you may want to apply. The passport-sized photo is easy to obtain, and when you go to a photo studio to have it taken, the technician usually knows what you need, which is why you do not need to worry about it so much. However, apart from the size, the photo needs to meet other guidelines as well.

It's very important that the picture you use when you apply for an Ivory Coast visa meets each and every single one of them. Otherwise, your application process will be unsuccessful. Here are the other requirements needed:

• White background – no matter the color of your skin, white provides the best possible contrast, which is why the background of every visa photo is white. Nevertheless, you will never see a photo studio that uses another color.

• Make sure the photo is recent – it is preferable that your visa photo is as recent as possible, but it cannot be older than 6 months. Even if your face looks exactly the same as it did two years ago, you should have a new set taken. Plus, a lot of things can change in your appearance in a year or two. At the same time, if you were brown-haired last month and now you are blonde, it would be best if you go and have your picture taken again.

• No headwear – even if you like your hat very much, you will not be allowed to wear it in your shot. That is because it is prohibited to wear anything on your head when you have your picture taken for your visa. However, there are a few exceptions. If your religion does not allow you to wear your head uncovered, you are allowed to keep your headscarf. But even so, your face needs to be visible from the bottom of your chin to the top of your forehead. That ensures better identification.

• No glasses – You are not allowed to wear your glasses when you have your picture taken. After all, the technician must see your eyes properly. Why is this necessary? Because we all know what happens when you have a flash against glasses: Glare. That can make the photo unclear, and a part of your face may not be visible enough. That will not wor for an eVisa.

• Do not make face gestures – we all look better when we smile, but you should abstain from doing it when you have your photo taken. The best thing you could do is show a neutral face. No other expressions are allowed either.

* Look straight at the camera – you cannot look in any other direction. This ensures better identification.

Hopefully, the information about the Ivory Coast photo size and other requirements mentioned above are helpful. Even so, as long as a professional is taking your picture, you have no reason to worry. You will receive your Ivory Coast eVisa for sure. And even if you do not, it will not be because of your photo.
