The Passport Office (HMPO) has introduced a new Digital Passport Photo service which simplifies how you can send in your photo for your online British Passport application.
Take a photo at home and receive from us a Digital ID Photo Code that you can use in your online British Passport application. When you enter the code your pre-approved passport photo will appear automatically as it has already been biometrically checked directly online with the Passport Office. You can do all this from the comfort of your own home.
