How to prepare it · Common reasons this gets rejected
How to prepare it
- Start from the original photo or scan, not a screenshot of one.
- Use a plain, evenly lit background with no shadow behind you.
- Leave a little space above the head — we crop to the required shape for you.
- Do not add filters, borders or text — portals reject altered images.
Common reasons this gets rejected
- The file is larger than the Up to 4000 KB limit.
- The file is not JPEG/PNG.
- A phone photo uploaded sideways because of its orientation tag.
- A patterned or dark background where a plain one is required.
