Question 1

What are the photo specifications for a Uruguayan driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Uruguayan driving licence photos must be 35×45mm in colour, with a plain white background. The head must be centred and fill approximately 70–80% of the frame, with a neutral expression, mouth closed, and eyes open looking directly at the camera. Requirements are set by INTEVÍAS (Instituto Nacional de Tránsito y Vialidad) and administered through the relevant Intendencia Municipal.

Question 2

What background colour is required for a Uruguayan driving licence photo?

Accepted Answer

The background must be plain white. There should be no patterns, shadows, objects, or other people visible in the background. ID Wizard automatically applies a compliant plain white background to your uploaded photo.

Question 3

Are glasses allowed in a Uruguayan driving licence photo?

Accepted Answer

No. Glasses are not permitted in Uruguayan driving licence photos. Glasses can cause reflections and obstruct the facial features required for biometric processing. Remove all glasses before taking your driving licence photo.

Question 4

How recent must my Uruguayan driving licence photo be?

Accepted Answer

Driving licence photos submitted to INTEVÍAS or the Intendencia Municipal must have been taken within the last 6 months and must accurately represent your current appearance. Using an outdated photo may result in your application being refused. ID Wizard produces your photo immediately, so it will always satisfy the recency requirement.

Question 5

Can I take my Uruguayan driving licence photo at home?

Accepted Answer

Digitally prepared photos are accepted as long as they meet INTEVÍAS specifications: 35×45mm, plain white background, correct head size, neutral expression, and no glasses. ID Wizard produces a high-resolution JPEG that meets Uruguayan driving licence photo requirements for printing or digital submission.

Question 6

Can the same photo be used for a Uruguayan passport and driving licence?

Accepted Answer

Both the Uruguayan passport (Pasaporte Electrónico) and driving licence use the 35×45mm biometric format with a plain white background. The specifications are similar and in most cases the same photo can be used. Always confirm the current requirements with INTEVÍAS or the relevant Intendencia before submitting the same photo for both documents.
