03What we fix

What we fix for free, and what AI fixes

Fixed for free

  • Background. Replaced with the one this document asks for: plain white or light grey 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.

  • The service links to Kazakhstan photo requirements for the uploaded image.
  • The official photo-requirements file specifies 3.5 × 4.5 cm / 413 × 531 px identity-document parameters.
  • The linked requirements are general Kazakhstan document-photo rules rather than repeated inline in the driving-licence page.
  • The profile remains official-general because the service confirms upload, while the detailed matrix is sourced from linked general guidance.
