Frequently Asked Questions
What are the standard dimensions for national ID and driver's license photos?
Most national identity cards and driver's licenses follow standard biometric standards: either 35×45 mm (common across Europe, Asia, and the UK) or 2×2 inches (common across the US and Canada). Our presets allow one-click selection of official standards.
Can I use this tool for student ID cards, corporate badges, and gym memberships?
Yes. You can choose standard document presets or use custom dimensions to create compliant photos for employee badges, university IDs, medical registrations, library cards, and municipal permits quickly without visiting an expensive photo studio.
What is the best dress code for an official ID photograph?
Wear everyday collared or semi-formal clothing in dark or solid colors that contrast nicely against a plain white background. Avoid uniforms, camouflage, and bright white shirts that blend into the wall and make edges indistinguishable.
How do I ensure my ID photo prints in the exact physical size on paper?
Select your dimensions in CM or MM and ensure 300 DPI resolution is selected. When printing on photo paper at home or at a pharmacy print kiosk, disable Fit to Page scaling to print at exactly 100% scale without stretching.
Are my personal ID photos stored or logged on your servers?
No. Zero image data is ever transmitted across the internet. Everything is rendered and cropped directly on your device's browser memory, guaranteeing total privacy for sensitive identity documents, driving licenses, and employee badges.
