Same rectangle as the UK and Europe
Australia uses the widely adopted 35 × 45 mm standard, so a photo already cropped for a UK, Schengen or Indian application is the correct shape. That makes 413 × 531 pixels the right target at 300 dpi.
As always, matching the rectangle is not the same as meeting the rules. Australian guidance covers expression, glasses, head coverings and how the photo must be endorsed for a first application — none of which a resizing tool can check.
The endorsement is the Australian difference
What genuinely separates an Australian application from a British or European one is not the rectangle — those are identical — but the endorsement. For a first adult passport, one of the printed photographs has to be signed on the back by a guarantor who can confirm the photo is of you.
That single requirement changes how you should produce the file. The endorsed print and the other copies must be the same photograph, so generate one correctly sized image and print from that file every time. Regenerating or re-cropping between prints produces copies that differ subtly, which defeats the purpose of the endorsement.
It also means an Australian application is not fully digital in the way a UK renewal can be — you will be handling paper, so print quality and colour accuracy matter more than file size.
Paper applications need identical prints
Australian passport applications have traditionally required more than one identical printed photograph, with one endorsed on the back. That is a printing consideration rather than a digital one, but it affects how you should produce the file.
Produce a single correctly sized image here, then print multiple copies of that same file at 300 dpi. Printing at different scales, or re-cropping between copies, gives you photos that are not identical — which is exactly what the requirement is guarding against.
