About this photo

Applying through the Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat (JKM)? The Malaysia OKU Card photo it wants measures 35 by 50 mm. Frame it so the head takes 35 to 40 mm of the 50 mm height. A photo taken at home with a phone is fine provided it meets these rules; ask someone else to take it at eye level. Neutral expression, eyes open, mouth closed, looking straight at the camera. If you apply online (Jabatan Kebajikan Masyarakat (JKM) online application), the file must be at least 250 by 350 pixels, as a JPEG, no larger than 100 KB. The background must be plain white or light grey or off-white, evenly lit and free of shadows. We crop your picture to the Malaysia OKU Card format, set the background and check the head size before you pay.
