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 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.

Togo-specific things to know

  • Togo asks for «two identity photos on a white background» for both a first application and a renewal, and publishes no size — the DGDN counter is where the format is settled.
  • The application starts online and finishes with a visit to the DGDN on a filing day (Monday, Wednesday or Friday) with the printed form, the receipt and all documents.

Where these numbers come from

Source: Directorate General of National Documentation (DGDN) of Togo — public-service portal. Last checked against the official page on 1 Oct 2026.

What the source confirms

  • Togo public-service portal, «Demande de passeport»: the ordinary passport is issued to any Togolese citizen who asks for it, the service passport to civil servants (their ministry sends a letter to the Ministry of Security), the diplomatic passport to diplomats and senior state officials; the passport is delivered by the DGDN, costs 30 000 F CFA, is valid 5 years and takes at least 2 weeks.
  • Same page, a first application: the original nationality certificate with a legalised copy (or the duplicate); the original birth certificate with a legalised copy; the person-to-contact attestation for adults or the parental attestation for minors, legalised at the town hall or the prefecture; a simple copy of the identity card; a simple copy of the proof of profession (a work certificate or a diploma); a marriage certificate for legally married women; two identity photos on a white background; a receipt of 30 000 F CFA paid on the platform.
  • Same page, a renewal: the originals of the acts; the attestation (person to contact or parental); a simple copy of the proof of profession; a simple copy of the identity card; the old passport; two identity photos on a white background; a copy of the marriage certificate for married women; the receipt of 30 000 F CFA; a service passport also needs a copy of the letter from the civil servant's ministry to the Ministry of Security.
  • Same page, the steps: fill in the form online; the DGDN checks the data and either notifies an error to correct or requests the payment; pay by mobile money (Flooz, Tmoney) or bank card (Visa, Mastercard) on the platform; download and print the form and the receipt in two copies; go to the DGDN on a filing day (Monday, Wednesday or Friday, 07:30–12:00 and 14:30–17:00) with all the documents; follow the progress by notification, SMS and e-mail; collect the passport on a collection day (Tuesday and Thursday, and Saturday morning).
