2 x 2.5 Inch Photo Maker: Free Online Tool
A 2 x 2.5 inch photo has a 4:5 shape, which at 300 DPI is 600 x 750 pixels. That is exactly the minimum digital size GOV.UK asks for in UK passport and UK visa applications (at least 600 pixels wide and 750 pixels tall).
JPG, PNG or WebP · you can also paste (Ctrl+V)
UK online applications do not need a print, so this size is mainly useful if you want a file in that shape or a matching print. For the uploads, use the UK passport or UK visa tool, which also keeps the file inside the KB limits.
