There are a number of requirements for ID photos which are typically used in some of the following;

  • Producing ID cards

  • Confirming your identity with event-staff, security and emergency services

As such, ID photos which are uploaded should meet the same standards as your drivers or passport photo so you can be properly identified, and to minimise the time needed to roster you onto events where ID cards and other photo ID is required.

Ideally, ID photos should meet the 'Passport photo requirements', as follows;

Guidelines for passport photos are;

  • Good quality, colour gloss prints, less than six months old

  • Clear, focused image with no marks or 'red eye'

  • Plain white or light grey background that contrasts with your face

  • Uniform lighting (no shadows or reflections) with appropriate brightness and contrast to show natural skin tone

  • Face looking directly at the camera and not tilted in any direction

  • Hair off the face so that the edges of the face are visible

  • Eyes open, mouth closed

  • Neutral expression (not smiling, laughing or frowning), which is the easiest way for border systems to match you to your image.
