Applying for Canadian Permanent Residence (PR) or a PR Card requires strict adherence to Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) photo standards. Unlike general visa photos, Canada PR requires a distinct 50×70 mm (2×2¾ inches) size and mandatory physical details endorsed on the reverse side of the photograph.
At Photo Studio Lalitpur (photostudiolalitpur.com), located at Wai Wai Chowk, Bhaisepati, we provide end-to-end, certified Canada PR and visa photography. We strictly ensure that your head size, lighting, background contrast, and non-altered biometric geometry meet 100% of IRCC paper and online application specifications.
To ensure complete compliance for both paper-based and portal submissions, our studio prints the exact 2 identical physical copies, endorses the back of the photo with our official studio seal, studio address, postal code, date of photography, photographer's signature, and applicant details, and provides an official PAN Bill alongside a calibrated digital scan emailed directly to your inbox.
100% IRCC Paper & Online Compliance: Precise 50×70 mm outer dimensions with a 31 mm to 36 mm chin-to-crown ratio against a plain, shadowless white background.
Complete Back-Photo Endorsement: Fully stamped and hand-filled with applicant name, date of birth, studio name, complete postal address, date of capture, and photographer authentication (no stick-on labels used).
Zero Alteration Policy: Absolutely no artificial skin smoothing, background pasting, facial retouching, or red-eye editing that could result in application cancellation.
Digital Scans & Official Invoicing: Includes high-resolution digital copies formatted for web portal uploads and an authentic PAN bill for your documentation records.
Infant, Child & Medical Specialization: Experienced handling of newborn PR photos (car seat/blanket setup) and accommodation for medical requirements (wheelchairs, headwear, nasal cannulas).
Mandatory Canada PR Photo Rules & Pose Requirements
