Preparing your photo with PhotoID Studio
PhotoID Studio automatically crops and resizes your uploaded photo to the 35×45 mm Fijian specification. Face detection verifies head height and position, then the app produces a print-ready JPEG. You can print the result at any photo shop.
Tips for a compliant photo
Take the photo in front of a plain white wall with even lighting. Face the camera directly and keep a neutral expression. Avoid flash. Smart or formal attire is recommended.
Common rejection reasons
• Non-white background or shadows on the background. • Sunglasses or tinted glasses. • Hat or head covering (unless required for religious reasons). • Hair or accessories partially covering the face. • Blurry or low-resolution image. • Photo taken more than 6 months before the application date.
Photo cost and the PhotoID Studio advantage
Biometric photo prices at studios in Fiji typically range from FJD 5 to FJD 15. A single PhotoID Studio annual subscription lets you prepare a compliant photo without visiting a studio.
