Germania Patente from Svizzera: licence / DMV crop only
Scope lock: Germania Patente is a driving-licence / DMV-style product. Passport or green-card essays are not reused on this URL.
Even when your FotoPass market shows Svizzera, a Germania Patente must still meet Germania photo law for that document — local domestic sizes are a different product.
This article is scoped to Germania Patente as a Germania driving-licence / DMV-style photo (35 × 45 mm, Bianco). Passport, green-card and visa essays stay on their own URLs.
Cross-border licence work: UI market Svizzera, photo law Germania for Germania Patente. Passport essays are not reused here.
German-speaking driving licence standards commonly use 35 × 45 mm with a light background. Germania Patente on this page instead targets 35 × 45 mm and Bianco — do not assume an EU booth print is interchangeable.
Home-market tip: Svizzera passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. Germania Patente instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From Svizzera: selfie → Germania Patente selected → upload → send the export to the Germania licence portal or counter — not a recycled travel JPEG.
Why Svizzera prints fail Germania licence desks
A 35 × 45 mm Svizzera 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Licence desks also reject glasses glare and outdated likeness more aggressively than some passport counters.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 Svizzera
Upload the newest Germania Patente file for the Germania transport authority — keep the selector off passport products.
Apply portal compression only after the licence crop is correct.
Stay on the licence product (Germania Patente)
Switching to a Svizzera passport mid-flow silently changes millimetres. H1 and selector must remain Germania Patente.
