Face dimension and passports requirements
article
In China, The Netherlands and Greece the requirements for a photo in travel documents include a ratio between head height and face width. 2.7 to 4.7% of the population falls outside the ratio limits. Therefore, millions of travelers do not meet the criteria. In practice, they generally do receive a passport but sometimes after elaborate discussion and procedures. We recommend abolishing face width as a criterion to bring rules and common practice more in line.
