Firearms Licence Photo - Size & Requirements

In the United Kingdom ownership of a gun is heavily regulated and only police can approve if an individual can seek to own a gun. However, it has to show plenty of legitimate reasons and even then, not all guns can be licensed.

If you want to know what are the firearm license requirements regarding photo, documents, and who and how can apply, read on!

Firearms Licence photo guidelines

As a gun owner, you have to prove your identity and that you have the skills and rights to have one. This is why it is important to meet all the requirements. Not everyone can get a firearm license. There are a lot of rules and requirements to obtain one. In general, guns in Great Britain aren’t permitted.

Firearm license photo size

To obtain a gun license one of the requirements is a passport size photograph which means 35 mm x 45 mm.

How to take a Gun License photo at home?

Along with the Firearm License application, you might try to get a photo in passport size at home which will perfectly suit your gun license!

Regarding the official government requires, while posing to the document photo, you must:

be facing forwards and looking straight at the camera
have your eyes open and visible
have a neutral expression and your mouth closed
not have hair covering your eyes
not have anything covering your face
not have any shadows on your face or behind you
not have a head covering (unless it’s for religious or medical reasons)

And the digital photo must:

be taken against a plain light-coloured background
contain no other objects or people
be in contrast to the background
not have a ‘red eye’ effect

When you have already met the specification, it is time to start taking photos. The Passport Photo Online site can help you with it. Try our photo booth available on iOS or Android, take a photo, upload it, choose the right document and the rest leave to us!
