North Korean Diplomatic Passport Photo

The Bearer’s Portrait in a North Korean Diplomatic Passport

North Korea’s diplomatic passport is documented separately from its ordinary and service passports in the European Council’s PRADO register. The described diplomatic version includes a principal facial image and a secondary ghost image on the biodata page. Those features show how the portrait participates in identifying the holder within the finished travel document.

For an application, establish the authorised diplomatic-document procedure with the responsible official office. PRADO describes authentic documents for recognition purposes; it does not provide an applicant’s current photo checklist. Confirm the capture or submission arrangements and supporting authorisation instead of inferring a print quantity from the example booklet.

Our photo requirements, framing, background, facial expression and photo quality pages explain how to review an identification portrait. Preserve a natural likeness and avoid selecting an official biography photograph solely because it already exists. The pose, crop and lighting still need to fit the instructions given for passport production.

The North Korea page provides related North Korean document context. Keep the requested identity documents with the institutional application papers and match each photograph to the correct applicant. Use the embassy and consulate directory for relevant mission contacts and the visa finder as a starting point for destination research. Confirm the arrangements for the actual assignment, including any accreditation or entry permission, separately from preparing the photograph for the diplomatic passport itself.
