A selfie is fine. The photo is taken by itself only when position, shoulders, facing, expression and light are all right; size and framing are set automatically.

Add one photo of your face looking straight at the camera (JPG, PNG, WebP, HEIC).

How to take a photo that passes
  • Stand about 1 m in front of a plain light wall, facing a window or soft light.
  • A selfie is fine: hold the phone at arm’s length at eye level (both hands keep the shoulders level), face and shoulders square to it. A phone right in front of the face makes the nose and forehead look bigger.
  • Look straight at the camera, mouth closed, both eyes open, hair off the eyes and ears.
  • No hat, no tinted glasses; keep your shoulders in the picture.
  • Use a photo taken in the last 6 months.

Your photo stays on this device. Only the AI model files (about 41 MB, once) are downloaded from this site.

Your photo never leaves this device. Everything runs in your browser.

What it does

  • The rules for Korean ID card or driver licence

  • The head measured the way this office measures it

    For the Korean ID card or driver licence photo the head is measured from the chin to the top of the head, hair not counted. The maker applies that measure to the Korean ID card or driver licence frame, so hair does not skew the face size.

  • The file or the sheet you need

Good to know

The ID card allows more background colours than the passport, so a light grey or light blue backdrop is fine there. For the driver licence the background must stay as photographed; replacing it is not accepted, so shoot it in front of a plain pale wall.

The figures for Korean ID card or driver licence come from the maker’s rule card, checked in October 2026 against the issuing office’s published guidance, and rules change, so read the current Korean ID card or driver licence instructions before you submit.
