United States DV Lottery entry photo maker

A United States dv lottery entry photo is 51x51mm (about 600x600px at 300dpi) on a white / off-white background, with the digital file under 240KB. Make the final photo and print sheet locally below.

For a Diversity Visa lottery entry, use a JPEG exactly 600x600 pixels and no more than 240 kB, taken within the last 6 months against a plain white or off-white background. Do not alter your appearance. Selected applicants need two identical 2x2-inch printed photos for the interview. This entry preset is not a universal specification for all green-card applications.

FAQ

What size is a United States DV Lottery entry photo?

51x51mm, about 600x600px at 300dpi, on a white / off-white background. For a Diversity Visa lottery entry, use a JPEG exactly 600x600 pixels and no more than 240 kB, taken within the last 6 months against a plain white or off-white background. Do not alter your appearance. Selected applicants need two identical 2x2-inch printed photos for the interview. This entry preset is not a universal specification for all green-card applications.

Can I make it at home?

Yes. Upload a front-facing photo and the tool crops it, aligns your face, builds the final image and lays out a print sheet — all locally in your browser, with nothing uploaded.

Is the photo guaranteed to be accepted?

No. Snapfora builds to published specs and gives you a self-check, but acceptance is decided by the issuing authority. Cross-check the official source before submitting.
