What this document is

A national type D visa is a long-stay visa for stays of more than 90 days. In the Schengen states this is laid down in Article 18 of the Convention implementing the Schengen Agreement: long-stay visas are national visas, issued by each state under its national law or Union law.

04What we fix

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes

Fixed for free

  • Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light neutral background without shadows.
  • Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
  • Frame. Exactly 36 × 47 mm, by the document’s rules.
  • A light shadow on one side of the face. Gently brightened.
  • File and print sheet. A file to the document’s rules and a 10 × 15 or A4 sheet to print.

What can't be fixed for free, AI correction fixes

  • Hard shadows and uneven light on the face.
  • A smile, raised brows or a half-open mouth. Cropping keeps the face it was given.
  • Too few pixels. If the original is smaller than 425 × 555 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
  • Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.
