About this photo

For a Malaysia Vocational Driving Licence (GDL and PSV) photo, the Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan (JPJ) sets the print size at 25 x 32 mm. Behind you: plain white, lit evenly so no shadow falls on the face or the wall. You can take it at home on a phone: have someone stand a couple of metres away at eye level rather than holding the phone yourself. Applications are made with printed photos, so you need a physical copy rather than an upload. Frame it so the head takes 22 to 26 mm of the 32 mm height. One colour photo of 25 x 32 mm on a white background with forms JPJL8A or JPJL12; renewals may use the MyKad photo. From a phone picture we produce the Malaysia Vocational Driving Licence (GDL and PSV) photo at this size and verify the framing against the Jabatan Pengangkutan Jalan rules.
