What is the official size for a Canadian passport photo?

What background color is required for Canadian passport photos?

Passport Canada requires a plain, uniform white or light-coloured background with no shadows, patterns, or dark spots behind your head.

Can I wear glasses in a Canadian passport photo?

Glasses are permitted only if the lenses are completely clear with zero glare or reflection, and frames do not obscure your eyes. Tinted lenses or sunglasses are strictly prohibited.

Is this photo tool suitable for Canadian Citizenship applications?

Yes. Canadian citizenship applications require the exact same 50x70 mm photo dimensions with 31–36 mm face height as Canadian passport applications.
