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Licence desks also reject glasses glare and outdated likeness more aggressively than some passport counters.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