Russia ID / Licence from United States: identity-document crop only
Scope lock: Russia 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 Russia ID / Licence must still meet Russia photo law for that document — local domestic sizes are a different product.
This article is scoped to Russia ID / Licence as a Russia 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 Russia for Russia ID / Licence. Passport and licence copy stay on other URLs.
Official framing for Russia 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). Russia ID / Licence instead demands 35 × 45 mm — different aspect ratio, not a simple resize.
From United States: selfie → Russia ID / Licence → upload → use the export for Russia registry / residence filings.
Why United States defaults fail Russia ID checks
A 51 × 51 mm (2 × 2 in) United States print is not automatically a valid 35 × 45 mm ID crop for Russia 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 Russia ID / Licence export with the Russia identity office or portal.
Compress only after the ID crop is locked.
Keep the selector on Russia ID / Licence
Do not flip to a United States passport or licence mid-flow — millimetres will silently change.
Russia ID / residence photo
Russia 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.
