Do I have to look serious for the biometric passport pictures?
No, you may have a friendly or a relaxed expression – just do not laugh. For biometric passport photos, there are certain criteria that must be observed by you and me. For the correct dimensioning I have a special software. Which ensures the correct ratio of chin to max. head height. Also no teeth should be visible. The same rules also apply to babies, although in this case the implementation of the rules is not as strict.
CAS-Pass holders receive a discount of 25% on the price of biometric passport pictures.

Of course, I can also create pictures for a visa. Please check with the embassy of the relevant country as to what requirements must be observed, eg dimensions, seating position, background color, etc.
Very often the rules differ from country to country.
