Passport photograph needed for driving license application

In the Landshut district, there have been some updates to the driver's license exchange process. Here's what you need to know:

The Landshut district Driver's License office now processes the exchange of a paper driver's license. If you're planning to make this change, it's important to note that paper or attached biometric passport photos are required. This requirement is a decision by the Federal Printing Office.

As of September 2025, digital photographs will not be accepted for processing at the driver's license office. So, remember to bring your physical passport photos with you.

The new driver's license can be sent directly to your home if your old one is already invalidated. This applies regardless of the specific Driver's License office you're using.

If you're interested in obtaining an International Driver's License, the Landshut district office also offers this service.

It's worth mentioning that the driver's license office does not produce driver's license cards. This task is handled by the Federal Printing Office, and the location of the card producer is not specified in the provided search results.

When applying for a driver's license in person, it's crucial to inquire about the invalidation of your old driver's license. This will help ensure a smooth transition.

Lastly, a second trip to the office to pick up your driver's license is not necessary if your current one is already invalidated. So, keep an eye on your mailbox for your new driver's license!

One final note: Digital biometric passport photos are sufficient for ID cards, but not for services at the driver's license office, including the Landshut district office.

We hope this information helps make your driver's license exchange process as smooth as possible. Safe travels!
