You need to check with the driving school's customer service, as regulations vary by school. Below is more information about driver's license photos: 1. Size: The background color is usually red, blue, or white, and the size is typically 1-inch or 2-inch. A 1-inch photo refers to a photo that is 1 inch in size, commonly used for ID photos. 2. Requirements for driver's license photos: The photo must be a recent (within the last six months), color, front-facing photo with a white background, without a hat. You cannot wear white clothes or uniforms. The photo does not need an ID number. The standard size is 1 inch. Those who require vision correction must wear glasses. The head should occupy about two-thirds of the photo's length, and the photo must be clear and recognizable.

Last year when I enrolled in the driving school, I encountered issues with my photo. The staff immediately pointed out that the red background photo I submitted didn't meet requirements and asked me to retake a blue background one-inch photo at the nearby photo studio. Key points: 1) Dimensions must be precise; 2) Background color cannot be wrong; 3) No jewelry or glasses allowed; 4) Natural facial expression without covering facial features. It's recommended to prepare a digital version in advance as many cities now support online photo uploads. Remember to wear dark-colored tops to avoid repeated revisions during later reviews.

Of course, you can retake the photo. There are clear standards for driver's license photo review: it must be a bareheaded photo taken within the last six months, with hair not covering the eyebrows or ears, and no obvious shadows on the face. I've encountered three failed reviews—the first time because the size was off by 1 millimeter, the second because the background was slightly gray, and the third because the corners of my mouth were raised too high. Different local DMVs have varying tolerances for photos. The easiest solution is to have the photographer partnered with the driving school handle it, as they are familiar with the local approval standards.

Don't worry about retaking the photo! When I signed up, the photo taken on-site at the driving school for 20 yuan was rejected three times, so I eventually went to a professional ID photo studio to retake it. Remember these common pitfalls: avoid wearing light-colored clothes, no colored contact lenses (they reflect light), and bangs shouldn't touch the eyebrows. Actually, many driving schools have mobile photography spots at their entrances, so just bring 10 yuan in change and you can get it done early.
