Free Albania Driving Licence Photo Online — Make a 40×50 mm (4×5 cm) Photo to Print

Need an Albania driving licence photo? Upload a recent portrait and IDPhotoBy sizes and crops it to the 40×50 mm (4×5 cm) colour standard used by DPSHTRR and e-Albania — front view, on a plain white background — with the Albania Driving Licence document already selected. It is free — no payment required.

Important: DPSHTRR and e-Albania do not accept a digital upload of this photo. You print the finished photo and hand it in, in person, at your local DRSHTRR (Regional Road Transport Services Directorate) counter, with your application.

Albania's national plastic driving-licence card is issued by DPSHTRR (Drejtoria e Përgjithshme e Shërbimeve të Transportit Rrugor — General Directorate of Road Transport Services). For the card itself, DPSHTRR staff capture your photo on the spot with their own digital camera at the counter — there is nothing to prepare or upload for that part.

This photo is for two separate, genuinely citizen-supplied services:

• Kopje Përmbledhëse e Lejes së Drejtimit (Summary Copy of the Driving Licence, for temporary circulation) — an optional photo you can supply on request during renewal, after a category addition, or after loss, theft or damage.
• International Driving Licence — the application form is submitted online through the e-Albania portal, but the photo itself is a physical print you hand in, in person, at a DRSHTRR counter, where it is affixed to the licence booklet before you collect it.

In both cases, the photo travels as a physical print presented at a service counter — DPSHTRR and e-Albania do not accept a digital upload of the photo file itself.

The Albania driving licence photo follows DPSHTRR's and e-Albania's own published requirements for the Kopje Përmbledhëse and the International Driving Licence. Check your photo against this list before you apply.

• Size 40×50 mm — 4×5 cm, portrait.
• Colour photo — a photo in colour, not black-and-white.
• Front view — facing the camera directly ("me pamje ballore").
• Plain background — e-Albania's own wording is "sfond pa ngjyra" (background without colour). IDPhotoBy treats this as a plain white background — the standard interpretation for this kind of photo — and checks your photo's background against it.

DPSHTRR's own pages do not state a numeric head-height, eye-line or top-margin figure, or an explicit background colour name — the size, colour and front-view requirements above are the ones actually stated in the source pages. IDPhotoBy positions your head using a standard, comfortably centred sizing (about 34 mm from chin to the top of the hair on the 50 mm-tall photo) — our own tool default, not a DPSHTRR-stated figure.

The Albania driving licence photo size is 40×50 mm — 4×5 cm, or about 1.57×1.97 inches — portrait.

You get a print-ready 40×50 mm photo — the size DPSHTRR and e-Albania ask for — so you never have to measure or resize anything yourself. This same 4×5 cm size is confirmed across four separate DPSHTRR and e-Albania pages, for the Kopje Përmbledhëse and the International Driving Licence alike.

• Upload a recent, well-lit portrait taken with a smartphone or digital camera, using the tool on this page — Albania Driving Licence is already selected.
• IDPhotoBy resizes and crops your photo to 40×50 mm and checks that you're facing the camera directly on a plain white background.
• Preview the result — check the framing, the background, and that you're facing forward.
• Download the finished photo, free, and print one 40×50 mm colour copy to hand in at your local DRSHTRR counter with your Kopje Përmbledhëse request or International Driving Licence application.

There is no app to download — the free Albania driving licence photo maker runs online in your browser, and doubles as a size checker if you already have a printed photo you want to verify.

No — an Albania driving licence photo is not submitted online, not even for the International Driving Licence. e-Albania's online step covers only the application form; the photo itself is a physical print you hand in, in person, at a DRSHTRR counter, where it's affixed to your licence booklet. This page is grounded in DPSHTRR's own process pages and e-Albania's own service page, not a generic assumption.

IDPhotoBy sizes and crops the photo you upload to the 40×50 mm standard and checks that you're facing the camera on a plain background. It does not retouch, beautify or otherwise edit your face, and it does not replace your background as a marketed feature — you get a correctly sized, correctly cropped print, free, with nothing to buy. We also make no acceptance promise: no online tool can guarantee a driving-licence photo will be accepted, and DPSHTRR makes the final decision.

• Assuming you can upload the photo instead of printing it. DPSHTRR and e-Albania take a printed photo at a counter, not a digital file — even the International Driving Licence's online application form only covers the paperwork.
• Using this photo for the plastic card. The card's own photo is captured on the spot by DPSHTRR staff — this printed photo is for the Kopje Përmbledhëse or the International Driving Licence only.
• A black-and-white or filtered photo. The requirement is a colour photo, unedited.
• Not facing the camera directly. e-Albania's own wording specifies a front view.
• A busy or coloured background. e-Albania's own wording calls for a background "without colour" — plain and even, with no patterns or objects.
• The wrong size. The photo must be 40×50 mm (4×5 cm).

Requirements and channels can change — check the official DPSHTRR (dpshtrr.al) or e-Albania (e-albania.al) pages, or your local DRSHTRR counter, before you apply; they are the final authority.
