Compliance Thresholds

These are the official measurements your photo must meet to avoid rejection:

Head Height

68% – 83% of image height

Printing Your Photo

Color photo on smooth, matte finish paper. 26x32mm for DNI/passport (smaller than ICAO standard). Cut the photo to exactly 26 x 32 mm (1.0" x 1.3") — any deviation beyond 0.5 mm can trigger rejection.

A standard 4x6 inch (10x15 cm) print sheet holds 15 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 plain white and completely uniform — any gradients, shadows, or patterns are grounds for rejection.

Submitting Your Driving Licence Photo

Spain uses a smaller photo format (26x32mm) for DNI and passport, unlike the standard 35x45mm used in most European countries. Visa photos use the standard 35x45mm.

Spain driving licence photos are usually submitted at the licensing authority or vehicle registration office. Check whether they photograph applicants on-site or require you to supply a printed photo.

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

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

Common Rejection Reasons

  • Wrong photo size (26x32mm is required for DNI, not 35x45mm)
  • Tinted or reflective glasses
  • Background not uniform
  • Head too small (under 68%) or too large (over 83%) relative to photo height
  • Non-neutral facial expression or wide smile
  • Shadows on face from poor lighting
  • Red-eye or flash glare on face or glasses
  • Head tilted or turned away from camera
  • Eyes closed or partially closed

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