passport

[rozia]

if you have a passport made for a 6 month old, and when he's 2 he looks quite different, would this cause problems at the airport, he's got more hair now, just asking for a friend.

nope - he'll have that one til he is 5 and will look even more different by then :o)

My daughters son had changed the same amount, but the check in girls loved the 6 month old picture of him and were passing it around showing each other. It did not cause any problem.

they will go by the general face shape and skin tone/colour and eye shape etc - certainly never had a problem with mine and my youngest first passport picture was about that age and he had very dark straight hair and by toddler age he had a pile of blond curls :o)

Just shows how useless passports for children are. No check on who might be taken out of the country.

Heard that the basic "triangle" of the face doesn't change - eyes, nose and mouth and that's what's checked.

[ummmm]

Daisy, it makes it much harder for them to be abducted, because once out of the country, it's bloody hard to get them back.
