What we fix for free, and what AI fixes
Fixed for free
- Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain light background.
- Head tilt. Straightened if the head leans slightly to one side.
- Frame. Exactly 35 × 45 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 413 × 531 px, enlarging it only blurs the face.
- Clothing and pose. Shoulders out of frame, body turned away from the camera.
Glare on the lenses. Take the glasses off or turn away from the light source and shoot again.
Why these photos get rejected — and how to fix each one
France-specific things to know
- The French licence photograph is a «photo-signature numérique» — an e-photo code from an approved photographer or booth, valid once — not a print to hand in; the paper form FPS is the fallback.
- A French national with a digital identity can use the single-use photograph generated by the France Identité application.
- An under-stamped envelope with the paper form is destroyed, so the postage must be right.

Where these numbers come from
Source: Service-Public.fr and France Titres (ANTS), France. Last checked against the official page on 1 Oct 2026.
What the source confirms
- Service-Public.fr (F2825), registering for the driving test: online on the France titres - ANTS site, with documents prepared as photographed or scanned copies — proof of identity, proof of address less than six months old, 1 identity photo or 1 digital photo-signature, a copy of the ASSR or ASR for those under 21, a medical opinion where necessary, and the documents relating to the defence and citizenship day for French nationals of 17 to 25.
- Service-Public.fr (F2825), first licence or the addition of category B: the application is made online on the ANTS site with the identity document, the proof of address and 1 digital photo-signature; if the applicant has no access to a digital photo and signature service, a photo-signature form (FPS) is filled in and posted during the online procedure.
- France Titres (ANTS), driving-licence site (invalidation or cancellation of a licence), documents: a proof of identity (for French nationals with a digital identity, the single-use photo ID generated during the process from the France Identité application is accepted), a proof of address less than six months old, a passport-size photo less than six months old in paper or digital format — on paper, the photo-signature submission form available at the end of the application is downloaded and posted, and an under-stamped envelope is destroyed; an e-photo code is valid only once.
