Paraguayan Passport Photo

A Paraguayan Passport Portrait Consistent with Your Cédula

For a consular passport from Paraguay, the Foreign Ministry emphasises that the name recorded in the passport must match the civil identity card. The official identity record is held by the National Police’s Identification Department. The portrait connects that recorded identity with the traveller, making consistency between the picture, application and cédula a useful starting point before preparing a passport request abroad.

The ministry’s consular-passport guidance includes a supplied photograph with a white background and a specified face proportion. Confirm the handling mission’s current delivery arrangements before ordering prints or exporting a digital photograph. The consular procedure should not automatically be assumed to describe every domestic police-office capture arrangement. Use the embassy and consulate directory to find the appropriate mission and check the application category, especially where a name change or a child’s passport is involved.

Prepare a recent recognisable likeness, with clear framing, suitable facial expression and dependable photo quality. The detailed photo requirements below explain the portrait specification; check them before producing the final version rather than adapting a photograph already cut for another document. Gather the requested identity documents at the same time. If the passport needs to reflect a changed surname, settle the underlying civil-record requirements with the authority instead of treating a different name on the application as a simple printing preference. The portrait and recorded details should identify one person consistently.
