Do not confuse it with another Vietnam document
Vietnam does not use one frame for everything. This page is about permanent residence card — 20 × 30 mm. The documents below are cut to a different size, so a file prepared here will not fit them.
- visa 40 × 60 mm
- work permit 40 × 60 mm
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 20 × 30 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 236 × 354 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: Vietnam National Public Service Portal. Last checked against the official page on 17 May 2026.
What the source confirms
- The National Public Service Portal procedure covers replacement/reissue of permanent residence cards.
- The file list requires two newly taken photos sized 2 × 3 cm.
- The photo instruction requires a forward-facing face.
- It says no hat, no glasses, formal attire and a white photo background.
- The page is a replacement/reissue route, so this profile remains official-general rather than exact initial-adjudication guidance.
