It seems that many people don't have a good looking ID card photo. Perhaps people are quite nervous when they take the official photos? How is your ID card photo? Are you satisfied with it?

That's nice. Usually we need to go to the photo studio as they will have a record slip and therefore we can issue the passport, ID card or something official. Although we can also use our camera to take digital photo, but the official photos may not be accepted because there is no such a record.

@LadyDuck I think without the official ID photos income, perhaps it is hard for the photo studio to survive today

@youless We have to bring our USB stick of the card with our digital photos and they copy the photo to keep in their records. It is not necessary to have one taken by them.

@youless Thank you. But in government IDs, I am not as great as my avatar. By the way, Happy Mother's Day, Youless.

I'm satisfied with my ID photo. It shows the same ugly mug that I have in real life!

In fact here not many people will have a makeup, especially a heavy one.

This is very amusing isn't it. My general rule is that passport photos without being able to smile makes the person look too sick to travel. They are so prescribed and official. They cost quite a lot of money to obtain as well. People are nervous when they have a photo taken for ID reasons.
