What size is an Indonesia visa photo?
Indonesia's e-Visa is an upload rather than a printed photo, and the Directorate General of Immigration's public pages ask only for "a recent color photograph" — they publish no size at all. The detailed upload rules sit inside the portal behind a sign-in we cannot pass. A figure circulating outside those pages puts the head at 50-60% of the image, well below the 60-80% we generate; we could not confirm it on any official page and will not adopt a number we have not read there. Check the upload rules on the portal before you pay us.
TL;DR An Indonesia visa photo is 35 × 45 mm on a plain white (some categories use red) background, supplied at 413 × 531 px (300 DPI). The expression must be neutral, looking directly at camera, and the photo must have been taken within the last 6 months.
