Canada Rijbewijs from Nederland: licence / DMV crop only
Scope lock: Canada Rijbewijs is a driving-licence / DMV-style product. Passport or green-card essays are not reused on this URL.
Even when your FotoPass market shows Nederland, a Canada Rijbewijs must still meet Canada photo law for that document — local domestic sizes are a different product.
This article is scoped to Canada Rijbewijs as a Canada driving-licence / DMV-style photo (35 × 45 mm, Wit). Passport, green-card and visa essays stay on their own URLs.
Cross-border licence work: UI market Nederland, photo law Canada for Canada Rijbewijs. Passport essays are not reused here.
Canadian passport prints are often 50 × 70 mm. Canada Rijbewijs here is 35 × 45 mm — a common dual-citizen mistake is uploading the Canadian strip unchanged.
Home-market tip: Nederland passport photos are commonly about 35 × 45 mm. Canada Rijbewijs instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From Nederland: selfie → Canada Rijbewijs selected → upload → send the export to the Canada licence portal or counter — not a recycled travel JPEG.
Why Nederland prints fail Canada licence desks
A 35 × 45 mm Nederland 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Licence desks also reject glasses glare and outdated likeness more aggressively than some passport counters.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 Nederland
Upload the newest Canada Rijbewijs file for the Canada transport authority — keep the selector off passport products.
Apply portal compression only after the licence crop is correct.
Stay on the licence product (Canada Rijbewijs)
Switching to a Nederland passport mid-flow silently changes millimetres. H1 and selector must remain Canada Rijbewijs.
Canada driving-licence photo searches
Searches for driving licence photo, driver license photo size, and local DMV / transport-authority headshots map to Canada Rijbewijs (35 × 45 mm, Wit).
Do not paste a passport JPEG into a licence application by default — glasses, background and recency rules often differ. Use this licence crop.
Canada licence note
Provincial licence desks often differ from IRCC passport crops. Keep Canada Rijbewijs at 35 × 45 mm / Wit.
