The DV Lottery requires a photo that follows strict guidelines: 600x600 pixels, recent (within 6 months), plain white or off-white background, neutral facial expression, and no glasses. The photo must meet official U.S. Department of State requirements.
Your photo must be 600x600 pixels, in JPEG (.jpg) format, and no larger than 240KB in file size. It must be in color, not blurry, and taken in proper lighting.
You can use our DV Lottery Photo Checker to instantly verify your image. It checks for size, face positioning, background color, and format to ensure your photo follows all the DV Lottery rules.
While our tool checks for all official requirements, final acceptance depends on the U.S. government's system. We provide accurate validation, but we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the U.S. Department of State.
