Do not confuse it with another Serbia document

Serbia does not use one frame for everything. This page is about permanent residence permit — 35 × 45 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.

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 background without textures, shadows, or foreign objects.
  • 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.

Where these numbers come from

Source: Ministry of Interior of the Republic of Serbia. Last checked against the official page on 17 May 2026.

What the source confirms

  • The Ministry of Interior says permanent-residence applications are submitted in person.
  • Approved permanent residence leads to a foreign national identity card.
  • Issuing that card requires the foreign national's presence.
  • The reason for presence is biometric data capture by the competent authority.
  • The public permanent-residence page confirms authority capture but does not publish an applicant-supplied photo-size matrix.
