EMGS Online Photo Checker

  • The EMGS online photo checker provides a convenient way for you to check a passport photo without having to start an application. It also allows professional photo takers to check whether the photo they have taken is suitable for student visa applications before providing it to an applicant in electronic format.
  • Use this tool to check whether a passport photo fulfills the requirements of Student Visa Application through EMGS.
  • When you upload a photo into the online photo checker, you will be advised if the photo is suitable for Student Visa Applications. If the photo is not suitable you will be advised the reason(s) why.
  • Once submitted, the photo will still be subject to manual assessment by EMGS and the Immigration department as part of the VAL application.
