Have you not had a passport before?

MOST countries enforce a neutral expression.
- Driver's license too, at least here in Canada
  
  The person at the DMV was confused why I was staring blankly (actually not, just a neutral expression) when taking a photo for my license. She told me that it’s ok if I wanted to smile. It’s weird how you’re allowed to have a non-neutral expression on driver’s licenses in the US.
  
  Not in Nova Scotia, a friend texted me a joke and I couldn't stop smiling. It was accepted.
- What if someone has a deformed face and that is their natural expression?
  
  Checkmate, Border Police!
- It's a joke.
  
  then why I'm not smiling?
Not a meme, this is common practice in the EU and elsewhere
- The funny part is that this is an "unnatural expression" according to this gov website.
  
  I wrote it in the description but people seem to miss it.
  
  It is an unnatural expression though, a natural expression would be how your face looked without you trying to change anything. ie. a straight face
Uhhh most passport or id photos must be Biometric meaning natural expression and no changes.
lol Polish. twarzy
Reminds me of this.
