Official Basotho driver's license photo requirements for 2026. Size, background and rules. Create a compliant photo online.
Image Created with AI for IllustrationLesotho’s government service charter lists two passport-size photographs for a driving-license application, together with valid identification and successful theory and practical tests. This makes the photo preparation a clear task alongside the driving qualification process. The pictures identify the applicant; passing the assessments establishes the entitlement to drive the relevant vehicle category.
The learner-license service also lists two photographs, but has its own requirements, including the application form and medical evidence. Keep the learner stage and full-license stage distinct when assembling the paperwork. A photograph supplied to a driving school should not be assumed to cover every later submission to the licensing authority in Lesotho.
Choose a current portrait with a recognisable likeness and prepare matching prints. Review facial expression, framing and photo quality using the detailed guidance below. Check the pictures at their intended print size before taking them to the office; blur or an awkward crop can be easier to miss when looking only at a large screen preview.
Keep the photographs clean and flat with the required identity documents, without writing across the face or attaching them before the receiving officer’s instructions are clear. Our photo preparation instructions help with preparation. If your request concerns renewal, a foreign-license conversion or a public driving permit, confirm that service’s own checklist instead of transferring every requirement from the first-issue driving-license page.
