Does the Dubai visa photo require a white background?

Yes. The UAE immigration system strictly rejects photos with colored or patterned backgrounds. Toolchi's AI background changer automatically replaces your photo background with official pure white (#FFFFFF).

Can I use a selfie taken with my smartphone for a UAE visa?

Yes, provided the lighting is even and your face is facing straight ahead with eyes open. Toolchi's biometric guide oval ensures your head and chin are perfectly positioned.
