The Ministry of Public Security has issued an extraordinary gazette revising the fees for the processing of national identity card photographs.
According to the new directive, registered photographers will now charge a maximum fee of Rs. 400 for uploading International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standard compliance digital images.
This fee is applicable to individuals applying for a new identity card or a duplicate after registration.
Public Security Minister Tiran Alles issued an extraordinary gazette, rescinding the previous notification published in Gazette No. 1965/33 on May 5, 2016, which had set the fee at Rs. 150.
The Minister highlighted that the objective of this change is to streamline the process of uploading digital images to the e-photo Studio Software System of the Department for the Registration of Persons.
