Printing Your Photo

Print on glossy or matte photo paper at 300 DPI minimum. Most home inkjet printers produce sufficient quality at this resolution. Cut the photo to exactly 35 x 45 mm (1.4" x 1.8") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 8 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 Light grey background (not white) and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your ID Card Photo

Norwegian passport photos are now taken digitally at the police station during your appointment. However, you can bring your own compliant photo as a backup.

Norway ID Card 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.

Glasses worn

Photo not cut to exact 35 x 45 mm dimensions
Shadows on face from poor lighting

If your photo is rejected, most authorities allow resubmission with a corrected photo at no additional charge.
