For the digital photo attached to a Kyrgyz Republic e-Visa application on the Ministry of Foreign Affairs portal evisa.e-gov.kg by nationals eligible for the e-Visa (tourist, business and the other visa types the portal lists). The portal asks for a 'digital photo' and publishes no size, format or background, so this page is the ICAO reference frame. Not for a Kyrgyz passport or for sticker visas applied for at a mission.

What trips people up
- CheckThe whole photo rule: 'You will need valid travel Document/Passport, Photo and Credit/debit card. You need to have scanned images of your Document/Passport and digital photo to attach them to your electronic application according to the visa type.' No size, format, background or age is published, so everything geometric here is the ICAO Doc 9303 reference, flagged as such; JPEG and 413 x 531 px are our rendering choice.
- CheckEnglish only: 'No, you must fill in the application form in English.' - but 'All documentation should be presented in Kyrgyz or Russian languages or translated to these languages.' Your passport must stay valid at least 6 months beyond the requested visa and have two free pages.
- CheckTiming: the verification e-mail is valid 72 hours; 'Attention! The application review period 5 working days starts from the moment of correcting all the necessary information or adding the necessary package of documents.' Returned applications are corrected via Services > Check status with the reference number.
- CheckMoney: the card need not be in your name; the fee depends on category, type and period and is never refunded (refusal, mistakes, unused visa). Do not buy air tickets before approval. Each traveller, including infants, needs a separate e-Visa.
- CheckAfter arrival most foreigners must register at their place of stay within 5 working days unless their country is on the exemption list; the portal's 'Do I need visa?' tool shows exemptions (e.g. Maldives nationals and Hong Kong / Macao permanent residents have 30 visa-free days).
Good to know before you pay
Any recent passport-style JPEG from a studio uploads as is - the portal publishes no format; use our file when you shoot it yourself.
