Frequently Asked Questions
What size is a Norwegian ID card photo?
Norwegian ID card photos are 35x45mm (3.5x4.5cm), the same biometric size used for Norwegian passports and Schengen-area documents.
Can I wear glasses in my Norwegian ID card photo?
No, glasses are not allowed. You can only wear glasses if you have a signed doctor's note explaining why you cannot remove them for medical reasons.
Can I wear a headscarf or religious head covering?
Yes, if a hijab, headscarf, yarmulke, or other head covering is part of your daily religious attire. You do not need to prove religious affiliation, but your full facial features must remain visible and the covering must not cast shadows on your face.
How is the Norwegian ID card different from the passport?
The national ID card (Nasjonalt ID-kort) is credit card sized (85x54mm) and comes in two versions: one with travel rights (red text) valid in EU/EEA countries, and one without travel rights (green text) for domestic identification only. Both use the same 35x45mm photo requirements as passports.
Do I need to bring my own photo to the appointment?
No. The police will take your photo at the passport/ID card appointment. You do not need to bring your own photo.
