Do not confuse it with another Thailand document

Thailand does not use one frame for everything. This page is about ID card — 40 × 60 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 40 × 60 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 472 × 709 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.

Where these numbers come from

Source: Department of Provincial Administration (BORA), Thailand. Last checked against the official page on 17 May 2026.

What the source confirms

  • BORA civil-registration material describes the national ID card and civil-registration service environment.
  • The material identifies a citizen-ID-card database and card records.
  • It also identifies a face-image and fingerprint database inside the official registration infrastructure.
  • This supports an authority-capture / official-record workflow rather than a reusable applicant-supplied print photo.
  • The public material reviewed does not publish a separate applicant-photo size or composition matrix.
