Choose a photo

We only accept photos that meet our requirements.

Your photo must: 

  • clearly show your face and upper shoulders
  • have a plain white or light-coloured background
  • have you facing straight at the camera (no side angles)
  • be in JPG, PNG, or PDF format.

Don't submit photos:

  • with accessories or hair that block your face (religious headwear is fine)
  • with a busy or distracting background
  • taken from an inappropriate angle (such as side-on)
  • with hand signs or props
  • with other people visible 
  • where you're too far away from the camera
  • that are blurry
  • that are edited (such as using filters or re-touching software).

Request an ID card 

Most students can request an ID card through this form, except for UQ College students - contact UQ College to request your ID card.

You'll be asked to upload a government-issued document, such as your passport, to confirm your identity.

See conditions of use to learn why we collect this information, how we use it, and alternatives for uploading government documents online.
