I was looking at the picture advice and all the usual stuff about plain background etc. It says no headgear, except for religious ones which are ok. Surely the whole idea of getting a document for identification is that they see your entire head. Surely I'm not alone in thinking this is bonkers?

No, but that would only be because you (and they) haven't thought very much about why such a consideration would exist. |

Why should such a consideration exist then? In case you think this is aimed purely at muslims I would not give any dispensation for a sikh or a nun either. I honestly don't see why religious people should get an opt out.

So you want to be standing behind someone in a passport queue having an argument about removing the headwear? Or clogging up the automatic machines?
If what you are actually trying to say is that all idiotic religious customs should be banned then I would agree with, but its probably not going to happen. |

There is a downside for people who demand this privilige.
Obviously anyone who can't be easily identified because their head is partially covered, will come under more intense scrutiny than the usual casual glance given to someone whose head is uncovered. |

The introduction of biometrics for identification purposes, such as fingerprints or iris recognition, renders identification from photographs significantly less relevant.
