What is specific to this document
- Vietnam does not use the same photo size for every document. This one is 40×60 mm, but the driving licence photo is 30×40 mm, so a print made for that one will be rejected here.
- At 2048 KB the upload limit is the most generous of the 2 Vietnam documents we cover — a file prepared for one of the others will fit.
- The authority sets a maximum file size but does not publish a pixel size, so the dimensions are your decision. Compress from a full-resolution photo rather than shrinking the picture until it fits.
Checked against the issuing authority’s own published material. Requirements change without notice — confirm before you submit.
