Can i use microsoft word stockphotos for my resumé

Yes, using Microsoft Word stock photos in a résumé is allowed.

Premium stock images, icons, and other creative content provided in Microsoft 365 apps (including Word) can be used freely inside Microsoft 365 documents for anything permitted by the Microsoft 365 license. This explicitly includes documents that are shared or sold, such as a résumé. You can also export the résumé (for example, to PDF) and distribute that exported file.

What is not allowed is taking those stock images out of Microsoft 365 for general use in other contexts (for example, copying them into non-Office apps or saving them as standalone image files to use on websites or merchandise). As long as the images remain part of the Word document (or its exported formats like PDF), using them in a résumé is fine.

For exact details, the applicable End-User License Agreement (EULA) for the Microsoft 365 subscription should be reviewed.
