Identity and Passport Service
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department what representations the Identity and Passport Service has received from people who find it distressing to remove their glasses when required to do so by the Identity and Passport Service.
[122785]
- Answer
-
Passport applicants are recommended to remove their glasses for the passport photographs in order to prevent glare and to prevent the frames of the glasses from covering the applicant's eyes. This will help to ensure that the photograph meets the relevant
international standards and may help to prevent delays to the processing of the application. There is no record of representations being received on this subject.
