Poland ID / Licence from United Kingdom: identity-document crop only
Scope lock: Poland ID / Licence is an identity / residence-style document page, kept separate from passport and licence URLs.
Many people in the United Kingdom order a Poland ID / Licence while renewing from abroad, booking a US consular appointment, or submitting an online US form. GOV.UK photo rules do not apply to that file — only Poland specifications on this page do.
This article is scoped to Poland ID / Licence as a Poland identity / residence-style photo (35 × 45 mm, Light grey), kept separate from passport and licence pages.
Cross-border ID work: market United Kingdom, photo law Poland for Poland ID / Licence. Passport and licence copy stay on other URLs.
Official framing for Poland ID / Licence on FotoPass is 35 × 45 mm with a Light grey background. Treat any other country’s booth print as a different template.
Home-market tip: United Kingdom passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. Poland ID / Licence instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From United Kingdom: selfie → Poland ID / Licence → upload → use the export for Poland registry / residence filings.
Why United Kingdom defaults fail Poland ID checks
A 35 × 45 mm United Kingdom print is not automatically a valid 35 × 45 mm ID crop for Poland ID / Licence.
Registries want a plain Light grey field and a current likeness — not a reused travel JPEG.
Registry / online ID notes from United Kingdom
File the newest Poland ID / Licence export with the Poland identity office or portal.
Compress only after the ID crop is locked.
Keep the selector on Poland ID / Licence
Do not flip to a United Kingdom passport or licence mid-flow — millimetres will silently change.
Poland ID / residence photo
Poland ID / Licence uses 35 × 45 mm and a Light grey background. If you arrived from a passport or licence search, confirm the selector still shows this ID document.
