Question 1

What size photo is required for a Liberian driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Liberian driving licence photos must be 35×45mm in colour. The head height from chin to crown should fill 70–80% of the photo height. The photo must be taken against a plain white background and must be sharp, in focus, and taken within the last 6 months. Requirements are set by the National Transit Authority (NTA) under the Ministry of Transport and align with standard biometric specifications.

Question 2

What background is required for a Liberian 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 National Transit Authority (NTA) 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 3

Are glasses allowed in a Liberian driving licence photo?

Accepted Answer

No. Glasses are not permitted in Liberian driving licence photos. The NTA follows biometric guidelines that prohibit glasses because they can cause reflections and obstruct the facial features required for licence card processing. Remove all glasses, including sunglasses and tinted lenses, before taking your photo.

Question 4

How recent must my Liberian driving licence photo be?

Accepted Answer

Your driving licence photo must have been taken within the last 6 months and must clearly reflect your current appearance. The National Transit Authority (NTA) may reject a photo that does not accurately represent your present appearance. Using a photo older than 6 months may result in your application being delayed or rejected.

Question 5

Does Liberia use right-hand traffic and how does this affect my licence?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Liberia drives on the right-hand side of the road, which is the same as most countries in West Africa and mainland Europe. The Liberian driving licence is issued by the National Transit Authority (NTA) under the Ministry of Transport. As an ECOWAS member, Liberia participates in the ECOWAS driving licence framework, which allows for mutual recognition among member states.

Question 6

What is an ECOWAS driving licence and can Liberians use it?

Accepted Answer

The ECOWAS driving licence is a harmonised licence format recognised across Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) member countries. Liberia, as an ECOWAS member, is part of this framework. A compliant 35×45mm biometric photo with a plain white background is required for driving licence applications through the National Transit Authority (NTA).
