About this photo

The Liquor Control Victoria asks for a Victorian Proof of Age Card photo of 35 by 45 mm. The Liquor Control Victoria takes your photo at the counter when you apply, so a photo of your own is usually not needed for this document. The background must be plain white or light grey or off-white, evenly lit and free of shadows. This one is still a paper process, which means printed photos and no online upload. The witnessed form is lodged at a photo point agency where your photo is taken. Frame it so the head takes 32 to 36 mm of the 45 mm height. The Victorian Proof of Age Card photo comes back sized, with a clean background and a head-size check, before you are asked to pay.
