I have worked as a security guard checking photo IDs at the gate of a utility company. The problem is that the ID photo, or a passport photo, was not taken today. It is usually several years old. People gain or lose weight. People dye or stop dyeing their hair. Men shave their heads or stop shaving. Men grow beards or shave beards. Men go bald. If the photo looked pretty much OK, I would let them in. The only other choice would be lock out half the workers.

Jan Muhammad, for tourist who came to Malaysia, it's no need passport or any travel document, just do like Bangladeshes and Nepalese who came in to Malaysia through the straits of Malacca without a passport or any travel document, about one or two years time stay, you will apply and straight away can get a valid Malaysian passport free of charge.

If you’ve had any surgery or reconstructive surgery where your appearance is considerably different from the picture inside the passport then you need new photos to renew the passport and another counter signature to confirm you are who you say you are. Minor alterations by surgery are acceptable and don’t require a renewal.

I used to have hair, now I wear it shaved....you'd think that'd make it easier. These past 3-4 years I've taken to keeping multiple copies of the photo I'd make at the photo booth, so that if the passport gets stolen over and over and over again I have multiples of the SAME photo for the constant replacements.
She had to look different in the passport photo. She was supposed to get enhanced, like she could have used fillers to make her nose look more the same. She had to look different from her real photos and get enhanced to look like the other lady. At the airport she had to look enhanced with fillers and makeup. The trick lacks determination. She didn't try to look different.
It happened to me. I was travelling with another person from Tel Aviv (!) After a check, we swap passports by mistake. I did pass controls with his passport, and he passed controls with my passport. We was not aware about the mistake so our body language was ok and passports was genuine, however, not our passports. We are both same kind of face, but very different weight and height. Funny

The distance between the face and the camera lens is hugely important. And it wasn't even mentioned. So many photos today are selfies, which seemingly distort features because they are taken so close to the face.
Here in California you need what is known as a "Real ID" star on your Driver's License which requires proof of citizenship. I had a "Passport Card" used to go to Canada or Mexico. The DMV's scanner rejected it as not a valid document. Had to go home and get my regular passport which passed the scanner. Interestingly enough the passport card and the passport were obtained at the same time from the US Passport Office. They both had the exact same photo and info on them. Glad I wasn't down in TJ trying to get back using the card.

In the UK, I had two tries at passport kiosk photos taken which the "computer " rejected. I have grey/white hair which merged perfectly with the background resulting in said computer saying I was not looking straight ahead and my eyes were shut...... reject.... twice! Ended up using a studio with better colour contrast and a slightly darker background which was accepted.

The REAL ID star DOES NOT indicate proof of citizenship-merely compliance with the REAL ID ACT. Five States: MI, MN, VT, NY, and WA offer what is called an ENHANCED DRIVER’S LICENSE. This type of license is the equivalent of, and an alternative to, a US Passport Card in that it provides proof of US citizenship. Non-citizens cannot get a passport card or an enhanced license.

Aus is likely following US closely with the AI immigration procedures. Customs takes your photo and the AI matches it itself. Facial recognition is also being used on outbound US flights in the boarding areas.

Thing is my makeup made my face like a whole different shade. (Lighter, of course). So now when people see my "older" IDs they think that's not me. Go figure. It's like, It WAS too me, 20 years ago!
