Prevent Application Rejections

Common Passport Photo Mistakes to Avoid

Submitting 35x45 mm standard European size for DNI

Issue: Many international photo booths print standard 35x45 mm photos, which do not fit the official Spanish DNI card slot.

Solution: IdSnapAI generates the exact 26x32 mm format required by Spanish Police stations.

Shadows behind shoulders

Issue: Uneven room lighting creates halos on the wall that fail Spanish biometric card scanning.

Solution: Our AI replaces the background with a 100% compliant solid studio white backdrop.

Wearing a white shirt that matches the background

Issue: White tops blend into the background, obscuring shoulder boundaries.

Solution: Wear dark clothing or use our suit changer to add a tailored blazer automatically.

Reflections on eyeglass lenses

Issue: Flash reflections over pupils cause immediate rejection at DNI renewal appointments.

Solution: Remove eyeglasses before capturing your portrait.
