Tips for a Good Photo
Good lighting
Shoot near a window in indirect natural light. Avoid harsh shadows across your face.
Plain background
Stand against a white or light-colored wall. AI removes it, but a clean background gives better results.
Face the camera
Look straight ahead with your head level. No tilt, turn, or chin up/down.
No glasses
Most countries no longer permit glasses in ID photos. Remove them before taking the photo.
Neutral expression
Keep a relaxed, natural face. Mouth closed, no squinting. A slight natural smile is acceptable for some countries.
