iT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO PHOTOCOPY PASSPORTS!!!
For god's sake, the company I work for is part of the biggest retail group in europe, they don't mess about breaking laws, we have written instructions in our managers handbook on this, it is the way we prove who people are when we employ!!! If it is illegal then over 5000 retail managers in the UK are breaking that law over and over again at the instruction of their head office!!!!!!!!!!! noone reads anything i put do they? tut
