For my latest contract (Mossad were involved) they wanted not only a scanned copy of my passport photo page BUT also a scanned copy of the front cover!
Surely the outside of my passport is the same as anybody elses.
Hows it different. If you want to see yourself as a quasi employee then go ahead.
You'll be telling us Sayara Beg has a point next.
Shopping at a store that may or may not be hiring an illegal is hardly the same relationship as a company that has legal contracts with the hiring company and in most cases as part of the brief ..... to ensure that the people they put forward are legitimately able to work in the UK.

Ok, do you think Santander asked McLaren to prove Lewis Hamilton was eligible to work in the UK before using him in advertising.
After all using him was part of the deal/contract to supply him.
I'd not question them wanting a letter stating that all employees of MyCo are eligible to work in the UK or even wording the same (which they do) into the contract.
But why the feck should they feel obliged to take a copy of my passport. They wouldn't give me theirs so why should I give them mine - most agents don't know their arse from their elbow and I'd rather not see a scan of it sit on some shared network drive for any fecker to use.
