Frequently Asked Questions
What size is a Hungarian ID card photo?
Hungarian ID card photos must be 35x45mm, the standard biometric format used across the EU. This is the same size used for Hungarian passports and Schengen visa photos.
Can I wear glasses in my Hungarian ID photo?
No. Hungary follows ICAO biometric standards which prohibit glasses in ID photos. This applies even if you wear glasses daily, as glasses can interfere with facial recognition technology.
What background color is required for Hungarian ID photos?
A plain white or light grey background is required. The background must be uniform, free of patterns, shadows, and objects. White is most commonly used.
How does the Hungarian ID photo compare to US passport photos?
Hungarian ID photos are 35x45mm while US passport photos are 2x2 inches (51x51mm). Hungarian photos are rectangular and taller, following the standard EU biometric format.
Can I take my own Hungarian ID photo?
Yes. While photos are typically taken at government offices (kormányablak), you can submit your own digital photo through the online system if it meets all biometric requirements. The photo must have proper lighting, correct dimensions, and a plain background.
What expression should I have in the photo?
You must maintain a neutral facial expression with your mouth closed and both eyes open. No smiling, frowning, or raised eyebrows are allowed, as these can interfere with biometric facial recognition.
