Can You Smile in a Passport Photo?
For passport photos, the main advice is keep a neutral expression — no big smiles or frowns. The idea is that your eyes and overall facial characteristics are clearly shown and this page can be effectively used for face recognition. But a small, relaxed smile is fine (as long as your lips are shut and your expression is neutral).
