You know Saudi Arabian women and other muslim women who are fully covered, their faces too, when they travel, do they show their face at the passport control? Does the passport show their face? There was an issue recently about Turkish women getting a passport with a scarf covering their hair, but this is nothing, I mean others cover even their faces and eyes. So what happens? I am not asking your opinion on what should happen, I just want to know what actually happens? Do you know?

They don't need identification? Why does the rest of the people need it then? Anyone could hide under these robes if they are not seen (Bin Laden for example?)

my grandma is muslim, but im not so im not really sure, but only women are allowed to see their faces so they show their face and passport to a woman security person who then checks it. i dont think they take pictures of their face fully covered because then theres no point to the picture then. if its only covering your hair then its fine, but i think you have to show at least your eyes because thats eneough to identify a person if they need to for security purposes.

if they are scanned and they have no metal items there is no need for further identification on an id most women will have their picture taken by a woman

They are special, so they get special treatment.
They can cover their hair on their passport photos, only women are allowed to see their faces.
Everyone else isn't allowed headgear on their photos, so why is it one set of rules for us and another for them?

Certainly they get checked by a lady custom officer.
