New Zealand Driving licence from Ireland: licence / DMV crop only
Scope lock: New Zealand Driving licence is a driving-licence / DMV-style product. Passport or green-card essays are not reused on this URL.
In Ireland, treat this page as a New Zealand-only tool for New Zealand Driving licence. Irish passport booth sizes are not a substitute when the form explicitly asks for New Zealand measurements.
This article is scoped to New Zealand Driving licence as a New Zealand driving-licence / DMV-style photo (35 × 45 mm, White). Passport, green-card and visa essays stay on their own URLs.

Official framing for New Zealand Driving licence on FotoPass is 35 × 45 mm with a White background. Treat any other country’s booth print as a different template.
Home-market tip: Ireland passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. New Zealand Driving licence instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From Ireland: selfie → New Zealand Driving licence selected → upload → send the export to the New Zealand licence portal or counter — not a recycled travel JPEG.
Why Ireland prints fail New Zealand licence desks
A 35 × 45 mm Ireland travel print does not become a legal 35 × 45 mm licence photo by trimming one edge.
Licence desks also reject glasses glare and outdated likeness more aggressively than some passport counters.
Licence portal notes from Ireland
Upload the newest New Zealand Driving licence file for the New Zealand transport authority — keep the selector off passport products.
