About this photo
For a Scottish National Entitlement Card Bus Pass photo, the Transport Scotland sets the print size at 35 x 45 mm. Behind you: plain white or light grey or off-white, lit evenly so no shadow falls on the face or the wall. Same National Entitlement Card photo rules for the 60+ and disabled bus passes; apply online with a phone photo or in person at a library. Home photos are accepted when they follow the rules, so a well-lit phone picture taken by someone else works. If you apply online (Transport Scotland online application), the file must be as a JPEG. Frame it so the head takes 32 to 36 mm of the 45 mm height. We crop your picture to the Scottish National Entitlement Card Bus Pass format, set the background and check the head size before you pay.
