Frequently Asked Questions

What size is a driving licence photo?
Most countries use 35×45mm for driving licence photos, matching the standard passport photo size. Check your country’s DVLA/DMV requirements for the exact size.
Is the driving licence photo the same as a passport photo?
In most countries, yes — the 35×45mm ICAO biometric standard is used for both.
Can I change the background colour?
Yes. Use the Remove BG feature and then select your preferred background colour (white, light grey, or custom).
What is the face oval guide?
The oval overlay shows the ideal face position in the frame. Zoom in or out until your face fits inside the oval — this ensures your face occupies the correct proportion of the photo.
What does Center Face do?
It automatically detects your face and centers the frame around it. Click it after uploading for the best starting position.
What does Straighten do?
It detects the angle of your eyes and rotates the image so they are perfectly level — useful for photos taken at a slight tilt.
