Why is my Spanish passport photo rejected? Let's look at common mistakes
I didn't immediately understand why my photo was rejected. I thought I had done everything according to the rules, but the rejection came. It turned out that the background was not pure white, but a little grayish because of the lighting in the room. I had to redo it. The second time, I decided not to risk it, so I used a service that automatically adjusts the photo to all the requirements. They checked the background, lighting, and even the position of the head, so I didn't have to guess whether the photo would fit. By the way, if anyone is interested, you can check the requirements for the photo here: https://photogov.net/documents/es-passport-32x26mm-photo/ - it's convenient if you don't want to redo the image several times.
Sometimes the reasons for rejection seem strange in general. A friend of mine had his photo rejected because his nose shadow was too obvious! I never thought it was such a serious problem. I also know that you can't use selfies, even if the camera is good. The photo has to be taken straight from the front, no distortion. It's probably easier to go straight to a photo salon or use a service that checks all the parameters at once. At least you'll save some nerves.
