How it is actually submitted
The printed copy is handed in at the police station or immigration office during the fingerprint appointment, together with the rest of the application documents. There is no digital upload: bring the photo on paper, cut to size.
How to prepare
Use a plain white wall, even light and look at the camera. The National Police require the head to be uncovered, so remove caps, scarves or other headwear, and do not wear sunglasses or tinted lenses. Print on photo paper and cut to exactly 26 × 32 mm.
Common rejection reasons
- Old or black-and-white photo
- Size other than 26 × 32 mm
- Coloured, textured or shadowed background
- Dark glasses or clothing covering the head or face
