About this photo

A passport-sized photo is uploaded on GoBusiness with the BDVL or BAVL application; no pixel specification is published. 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. Your head, chin to crown, should measure 32 to 36 mm on the print. A white background is accepted, as long as it is uniform and without pattern. The Singapore Bus Driver Vocational Licence photo comes back sized, with a clean background and a head-size check, before you are asked to pay.
