Question 1

What size photo is required for a Kiribati driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Kiribati driving licence photos must be 35×45mm in colour. The head height from chin to crown should fill approximately 32–36mm of the photo height. The photo must be sharp, in focus, and taken against a plain white background. Requirements are overseen by the Road Transport Division under the Ministry of Infrastructure of Kiribati, in alignment with standard biometric specifications for driving licences.

Question 2

Does Kiribati drive on the left or the right?

Accepted Answer

Kiribati drives on the left. This is consistent with its Commonwealth heritage and Pacific Island neighbours such as Australia and Fiji. A valid Kiribati driving licence with a compliant biometric photo is required when driving locally.

Question 3

Can I submit an online photo for my Kiribati driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Online photos are generally accepted for Kiribati driving licence applications. The BSI PointID certification requirement applies only to German Reisepass, Personalausweis, and Aufenthaltstitel — it does not apply to Kiribati driving licences. ID Wizard produces a high-resolution JPEG suitable for both digital submission and printing.

Question 4

Are glasses allowed in a Kiribati driving licence photo?

Accepted Answer

No. Glasses are not permitted in Kiribati driving licence photos. Biometric guidelines followed by the Road Transport Division prohibit glasses because they can cause reflections and obstruct facial features required for licence card processing. Remove all glasses, including sunglasses and tinted lenses, before taking your photo.

Question 5

What background is required for a Kiribati driving licence photo?

Accepted Answer

The background must be plain white. There should be no patterns, objects, shadows, or other people visible in the background. The Road Transport Division requires a clean, uniform white background for the driving licence biometric photo. ID Wizard automatically replaces your background with a compliant plain white background.

Question 6

How do I apply for a Kiribati driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Driving licence applications in Kiribati are processed through the Road Transport Division under the Ministry of Infrastructure. You will need to complete the required driving tests, provide a compliant biometric photo, and submit supporting identity documents. Always verify current procedures with the Road Transport Division before applying, as requirements may be updated.
