France ID / Licence from Ireland: identity-document crop only
Scope lock: France ID / Licence is an identity / residence-style document page, kept separate from passport and licence URLs.
In Ireland, treat this page as a France-only tool for France ID / Licence. Irish passport booth sizes are not a substitute when the form explicitly asks for France measurements.
This article is scoped to France ID / Licence as a France identity / residence-style photo (35 × 45 mm, Light grey), kept separate from passport and licence pages.
Cross-border ID work: market Ireland, photo law France for France ID / Licence. Passport and licence copy stay on other URLs.
Official framing for France 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: Ireland passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. France ID / Licence instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From Ireland: selfie → France ID / Licence → upload → use the export for France registry / residence filings.
Why Ireland defaults fail France ID checks
A 35 × 45 mm Ireland print is not automatically a valid 35 × 45 mm ID crop for France ID / Licence.
Registries want a plain Light grey field and a current likeness — not a reused travel JPEG.
Registry / online ID notes from Ireland
File the newest France ID / Licence export with the France identity office or portal.
Compress only after the ID crop is locked.
Keep the selector on France ID / Licence
Do not flip to a Ireland passport or licence mid-flow — millimetres will silently change.
France ID / residence photo
France 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.
