Netherlands ID / Licence from United States: identity-document crop only
Scope lock: Netherlands ID / Licence is an identity / residence-style document page, kept separate from passport and licence URLs.
Even when your FotoPass market shows United States, a Netherlands ID / Licence must still meet Netherlands photo law for that document — local domestic sizes are a different product.
This article is scoped to Netherlands ID / Licence as a Netherlands identity / residence-style photo (35 × 45 mm, Light grey), kept separate from passport and licence pages.
Cross-border ID work: market United States, photo law Netherlands for Netherlands ID / Licence. Passport and licence copy stay on other URLs.
Official framing for Netherlands 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 States passport photos are commonly about 51 × 51 mm (2 × 2 in). Netherlands ID / Licence instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From United States: selfie → Netherlands ID / Licence → upload → use the export for Netherlands registry / residence filings.
Why United States defaults fail Netherlands ID checks
A 51 × 51 mm (2 × 2 in) United States print is not automatically a valid 35 × 45 mm ID crop for Netherlands ID / Licence.
Registries want a plain Light grey field and a current likeness — not a reused travel JPEG.
Registry / online ID notes from United States
File the newest Netherlands ID / Licence export with the Netherlands identity office or portal.
Compress only after the ID crop is locked.
Keep the selector on Netherlands ID / Licence
Do not flip to a United States passport or licence mid-flow — millimetres will silently change.
Netherlands ID / residence photo
Netherlands 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.
