NID Card Photo Requirements

How to Prepare Your NID Photo

1. Take a clear photo — Use your phone camera against a white wall. Make sure there's good, even lighting on your face with no shadows.
2. Crop to square — Crop your photo to a square format with your face centred and taking up most of the frame.
3. Open WebConverter — Go to the Image to JPEG converter.
4. Convert your photo — Drop your photo into the converter. If it's PNG, HEIC, or WebP, it will be converted to JPEG instantly — right on your device.
5. Check file size — Verify the output is under 100 KB.
6. Download and submit — Save the JPEG and use it for your NID application.

Tips for a Perfect NID Photo

• White background — Stand against a plain white wall. A white bedsheet pinned to the wall also works well.
• Even lighting — Face a window for natural, diffused light. Avoid direct sunlight which creates harsh shadows.
• No accessories — Remove sunglasses, hats, and caps. Prescription glasses are generally allowed if there's no glare.
• Neutral expression — Keep your mouth closed with a natural, relaxed expression.
• Both ears visible — Pull hair behind your ears if necessary.
• Recent photo — Use a photo taken within the last 6 months that reflects your current appearance.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Wrong format — Submitting PNG instead of JPEG. Always convert to JPEG first.
• Photo too large — Phone camera photos are usually several megabytes. You need under 100 KB.
• Not square — The NID photo should be square (equal width and height). Crop before converting.
• Blurry or pixelated — Start with a clear, sharp photo. Heavy compression makes photos look blurry.
• Shadows on face — Uneven lighting creates shadows that can cause rejection.
