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 photo do I need for the Ghana Card?
The Ghana Card requires a 35x45mm passport-style photo that meets ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) biometric standards. This is the same size used for most international passports.
Do I need to bring my own photo for Ghana Card registration?
At NIA registration centers, your photo is captured digitally on-site. However, having a compliant photo prepared in advance helps you know what to expect and ensures you meet all requirements during your visit.
Can I wear glasses in my Ghana Card photo?
Glasses should be removed for the photo. If you need to wear them for medical reasons, the lenses must be completely clear with no glare or reflections, and the frames must not obstruct your eyes.
What background is required for the Ghana Card photo?
A plain white background is required. There should be no shadows, patterns, or other objects visible behind you.
How does the Ghana Card photo compare to a US passport photo?
The Ghana Card photo is 35x45mm (standard ICAO size), while the US passport photo is 2x2 inches (51x51mm). Both require a white background and neutral expression, but the dimensions differ.
