China ID / Licence from United States: identity-document crop only
Scope lock: China ID / Licence is an identity / residence-style document page, kept separate from passport and licence URLs.
Even when your FotoPass market shows United States, a China ID / Licence must still meet China photo law for that document — local domestic sizes are a different product.
This article is scoped to China ID / Licence as a China identity / residence-style photo (26 × 32 mm, White), kept separate from passport and licence pages.
Cross-border ID work: market United States, photo law China for China ID / Licence. Passport and licence copy stay on other URLs.
Official framing for China ID / Licence on FotoPass is 26 × 32 mm with a White background. Treat any other country’s booth print as a different template.
Home-market tip: United States passport photos are commonly about 51 × 51 mm (2 × 2 in). China ID / Licence instead demands 26 × 32 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From United States: selfie → China ID / Licence → upload → use the export for China registry / residence filings.
Why United States defaults fail China ID checks
A 51 × 51 mm (2 × 2 in) United States print is not automatically a valid 26 × 32 mm ID crop for China ID / Licence.
Registries want a plain White field and a current likeness — not a reused travel JPEG.
Registry / online ID notes from United States
File the newest China ID / Licence export with the China identity office or portal.
Compress only after the ID crop is locked.
Keep the selector on China ID / Licence
Do not flip to a United States passport or licence mid-flow — millimetres will silently change.
China ID / residence photo
China ID / Licence uses 26 × 32 mm and a White background. If you arrived from a passport or licence search, confirm the selector still shows this ID document.
