What are ID Photo Codes?
ID Photo Codes (IDPC) are unique to each customer and are generated when you have your ID photo taken by an IDPC compliant photographer.

Please note that some automatic photo booths supply photo codes, but they DO NOT check your image with the HMPO system to ensure it passes their passport photo requirements.
