DV Lottery Photo Tool Download Guide
If you are applying for the Diversity Visa Lottery program from Pakistan, you need to follow specific photo requirements. The photo must be recent, in color, and show a clear front view of your face. The background should be plain white or off-white. Your head should be bare unless you wear head coverings for religious reasons. The photo dimensions must be 600x600 pixels with a head height between 50% and 69% of the image height.To ensure your photo meets these standards, you can use the official DV Lottery Photo Tool. This tool helps you crop and resize your photo correctly. You can download it from the official U.S. Department of State website. Always use the latest version to avoid errors in your application.
When taking your photo, make sure there are no shadows on your face or the background. Look directly at the camera with a neutral expression. Do not wear uniforms or clothing that looks like a uniform. Avoid hats or headgear that obscure your hairline or cast shadows, unless for daily religious wear. Glasses are allowed only if they do not hide your eyes and there is no glare.
After downloading the tool, open it and upload your photo. The tool will guide you to adjust the photo to the correct size and composition. Save the photo in JPEG format. Do not edit the photo further after using the tool. Submit the photo as part of your DV Lottery entry before the deadline.
