A selfie stick is a telescopic metal rod with a clip or holder at the end where a smartphone or camera can be attached. By extending the stick, you can take a panoramic selfie.
Selfie sticks were developed to allow users to take photos of themselves from a distance, such as in a large group or with a wider background panorama.
Rules for Using a Selfie Stick to Take a Passport Photo
When it comes to taking a passport photo, using a selfie is not recommended. Many smartphones have a distorted selfie view that may not provide a natural representation of reality. It is, therefore, better to have someone else take the photo.
If you insist on using a selfie for your passport photo, it is best to use a selfie stick. However, the stick must not be visible in the photo and should not create any shadows. Additionally, the photo must meet the passport photo requirements, including size, composition, and expression.
