We check one selfie against every photo requirement listed on this page.
Pak-Identity publishes a file-size ceiling for the photograph but never states which image formats the photo field accepts — the formats listed in its guide belong to the supporting documents and fingerprint form, not to the photo.
Use this page only for Pakistan NADRA / NICOP Photo (online). Similar applications can use a different submission method, size or file limit. Why this rule has its own page
A phone photo is fine. Face the camera, use even light and keep your full head and shoulders in frame.
Some items still do not meet this rule after the automatic checks. AI can rebuild the background and gently correct pose while preserving your identity.
For photos you upload, AI generation starts automatically when this rule cannot be met in the browser; photos taken with the camera here are only sent if you start it yourself. Either way the optimized photo is uploaded for processing — compare the generated face with the original before use. Privacy policy
These values come from the selected rule and are used during generation.
Note: Pak-Identity publishes a file-size ceiling for the photograph but never states which image formats the photo field accepts — the formats listed in its guide belong to the supporting documents and fingerprint form, not to the photo. That ceiling is small, so expect to compress; no dimensions or background colour are published.
