Shadows on face — Uneven lighting causing shadows will result in rejection for biometric standards

Glasses glare — Remove glasses to avoid lens reflections that obscure eyes

Wrong head size — Face must occupy 70-80% of the photo height (32-36mm)

Photo too old — Must be taken within the last 6 months showing current appearance

Eyes not visible — Both eyes must be clearly open and visible for biometric scanning

Printing Your Photo

For mail-in applications, print your photo on 4×6 photo paper at any drugstore. Our download includes a print-ready template with multiple photos — you only need 2 for most applications.

Use glossy photo paper, not regular printer paper. When printing, select "actual size" or "no scaling" to ensure the photos are exactly 35 × 45 mm (1.4" × 1.8").

Frequently Asked Questions

What size is an Albanian ID card photo?

Albanian ID card photos are 35x45mm, following the standard European biometric format. This is the same size used for Albanian passports and most EU documents.

Can I wear glasses in my Albanian ID photo?

It's strongly recommended to remove glasses. If you must wear them for medical reasons, ensure there is no glare on the lenses and the frames don't cover your eyes.

How does the Albanian ID photo compare to a US passport photo?

Albanian ID photos are 35x45mm (rectangular), while US passport photos are 2x2 inches (51x51mm, square). The Albanian format follows European ICAO standards.

Is the photo taken at the government office or do I submit my own?

For in-person applications at local municipalities, photos are typically taken digitally on-site. However, you can also submit your own photo that meets the biometric requirements.

What background color is required?

The background must be plain white with no shadows, patterns, or gradients. This is essential for biometric facial recognition systems.
