Peru National ID Photo Creator (35x45 mm)

In Peru, the national identity card is officially called the DNI (Documento Nacional de Identidad).

RENIEC (Registro Nacional de Identificación y Estado Civil) is the Peruvian government entity responsible for maintaining the civil registry and issuing the DNI.

Children must be registered for a "DNI Menor" (Minor's ID) shortly after birth. The "DNI Amarillo" (Yellow ID) is for minors, while the "DNI Azul" (Blue ID) or the new "DNI Electrónico" is issued to citizens upon reaching 17 or 18 years of age.

Yes, our Peru DNI photo maker uses secure, on-device processing. Your photo is handled directly within your browser, ensuring it never touches external servers. This process keeps your data private, secure, and fully protected from start to finish, providing you with a safe and compliant way to generate your official identity documents instantly.

Yes, the standard DNI photo size is 35 mm x 45 mm, which is identical to the official dimensions required for both Peruvian passports and driving licenses, ensuring consistency across all documents.

RENIEC accepts both, depending on your application method. For online portal uploads, a digital JPEG is required; for in-person branch visits, a printed version is necessary. Our tool provides both options.

Use natural, soft lighting from a window or a well-lit indoor area. Avoid harsh overhead lighting, direct flash, or strong sunlight, as these can create shadows or reflections that may result in your photo being rejected.

No heavy editing is allowed. The photo must look natural and realistic. You can only adjust brightness or background color slightly. Heavy editing changes your facial features or skin tone, which might cause your photo to be rejected.

The DNI Azul is the traditional blue paper-and-laminate identity card, whereas the DNI Electrónico (DNIE) is a smart card equipped with a digital chip. The cryptographic certificates allow for digital signatures and online authentication.

No, eyeglasses must be removed for your DNI photograph. Lenses often cause flash glare, reflections, and frames that obscure your eyes, which will lead to rejection by RENIEC.

The background must be plain, solid, and completely white. It must be free of textures, patterns, objects, or any visible background shadows.

Wear casual everyday clothing in darker or contrasting colors. Avoid wearing white shirts or tops that blend into the white background, as well as uniforms or camouflage patterns.
