Official Mauritian driver's license photo requirements for 2026. Size, background and rules. Create a compliant photo online.
Image Created with AI for IllustrationThe Mauritius Police Traffic Branch lists two recent passport-size photographs in the supporting documents for a provisional driving-licence application. The same list includes identity, address and civil-status evidence, with additional papers for non-Mauritian applicants. These pictures belong to the learner’s application record, before the later stages that establish competence to drive.
The police describe several application channels, including the online service and local submission arrangements. They also distinguish licence conversion and international driving permits elsewhere in the guidance. A photo count taken from an international-permit checklist should therefore not be used to identify which national licence procedure you are completing.
Choose a current portrait and matching prints with a recognisable likeness. Review photo quality, framing, background and facial expression before assembling the dossier. Keep the photographs associated with the applicant’s own identity documents, particularly where a responsible adult accompanies someone under eighteen. Our photo preparation instructions help organise the image preparation, while the detailed requirements below cover the visual checks. In Mauritius, a provisional licence is part of the learning and testing route; an acceptable photo does not itself confer the entitlement shown on a full licence. Follow the Traffic Branch’s next steps for the vehicle category being requested.
Photo dimensions must be precise to avoid rejection. The face-to-frame ratio is equally important for proper identification.
Use a plain, distraction-free background. We replace it automatically to meet official criteria.
Proper lighting ensures your photo is clear and natural. Uneven exposure or artificial glare can lead to rejection.
Your face must be fully visible with a neutral expression for easy identification and facial recognition.
Glasses are allowed only if they do not obstruct visibility. Headwear is permitted only for valid medical or religious reasons.
Improper posture can lead to application rejection. Your face and shoulders should be correctly aligned and fully visible.
