General guidance
Before contacting us to request high resolution images, click here to view our "downloadable section". These images are available to download and may be re-used under the terms of the Open Government Licence.
Please correctly reference the origin of any photos used, as follows: “Image by (name);© UK MoD Crown Copyright (year)”.
Example: Image by Mark Phillips;© UK MoD Crown Copyright 2011.
The photographers name, can be located in the “Byline” section of the image. This can be found on the image preview page, when the thumbnail is clicked.
Please note that the Defence Image Database is not set up to act as a commercial online picture desk; as such it takes a minimum of 2 working days to supply images.
- MOD customers
If you are part of the MoD, and require imagery which is not available in the "downloadable" section. Pease send an email request to admin@photos.mod.uk.
Please include the full ID number of the image required, starting with "451", and explain your request and the exact use. This will allow a decision to be made on whether or not to grant permission.
- MoD contractors
If you need imagery to meet the requirements of a MoD contract, they should be provided to you as ‘Government Furnished Assets’ under the auspices of the contract in place. Please contact your MoD point of contact (POC) for matters concerning the contract, giving them a link to the image and also quoting the image ID number.
Your MoD POC should then place a request for the image, quoting the full ID number, starting with "451", and noting the relevant contract number, to admin@photos.mod.uk. Digital copies will then be sent to the MoD POC for onward transmission to you.
Please note that if there are any issues with a particular image you have requested, such as ownership, consent, or data protection, this may not be automatic and you may be advised to select alternatives.
