Photo National ID Egypt

Glossy photo paper, 40x60mm. Cut the photo to exactly 40 x 60 mm (1.6" x 2.4") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 3 photos at this size — a cost-effective option at any photo kiosk or home printer. Leave a small margin between cuts.

The background must be White background only and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Egyptian passport photos are larger than most countries (40x60mm). Ensure your photo is cropped to the correct size.

Egypt National ID photos are typically submitted in person at a government office. Staff may photograph you on-site, but bringing a printed photo prepared to spec can speed up the process.

Photo recency requirement: Must be taken within the last 6 months.

For the most current requirements, refer to the official government source before submitting.
