Slovenia residence permit photo guide
A guide that separates confirmed conditions from unspecified requirements.

The Requirement record is the source of truth; unspecified values are not filled in.
- The Slovenian residence permit application form (temporary residence, family reunification, 47. člen ZTuj) contains a photo box "prostor za fotografijo ali referenčna številka iz elektronskega odložišča fotografij" (photo box or reference number from the electronic photo repository), and the attachment list leads with the same item. The permanent residence permit page lists the same document. The printed photo is prepared for pasting into the paper form photo box (print channel).
- Submitting a photograph is one of two alternatives: applicants who can quote a reference number from the electronic photo repository (e.g. prior residence-permit holders) do not need to attach a photo. This page keeps that alternative intact.
- The authority publishes no photo dimensions in millimetres, no background colour, and no recency period: the form text states none, and the folkloric "30×35 mm" value appears in none of the official sources retrieved, so it is recorded as an unresolved contradiction and not adopted. The 3.5×4.5 cm value on e-uprava belongs to the passport (potni list) FAQ and is not applied to the residence permit photo. The Schengen C route (Embassy of Slovenia in Japan, ICAO reference) is a separate procedure whose values are not inherited.
