Common Mistakes to Avoid in Document Photos

Don’t let simple mistakes ruin your submission:

• Avoid Accessories: No hats, sunglasses—face must be visible.
• Skip Busy Backgrounds: Keep it plain and light-colored.
• Avoid Exposure Issues: Neither too bright nor too dark.
• Crop Correctly: Center head and shoulders.
• Use Recent Photos: Most authorities require a photo taken within 6 months.

✅ Always double‑check guidelines before uploading.
