Frequently asked questions
Common questions about creating and submitting this document photo.
Can I take this photo at home?
Yes. Use a recent, sharp portrait with even lighting. The final image must still meet the current authority rules.
Will every application accept the result?
The tool prepares the size and composition, but only the issuing authority can approve an application photo.
Can I use a phone photo?
Yes. Use the rear camera when possible, stand about 1.5 metres away and avoid portrait-mode effects.
