How to take a quality photo of your French ID card, passport, or residence permit?

Updated over 10 months ago

The ID photo capture is done live during the KYC step, where you will need to take photos/videos of your ID document and your face. Our system will then verify that the two match and that the ID card is valid.

Make sure to:

  • Clean your phone's camera lens.

  • Hold your phone steady without moving.

  • Properly frame all four corners of the document.

  • Ensure that the information is clearly readable by zooming in 🔎.

After taking the photo, confirm that the information is legible. If you have any doubts about the quality, don’t hesitate to retake the photo before submitting it.

If you encounter a problem, contact us at onboarding@hero.fr with as many details as possible and screenshots so we can forward the issue to our partner.
