I need to apply for a French national identity card or passport. On Service-Public.fr, what are the general rules for photos, where should I submit my application, and is my personal presence required during the application process?
Navigate to Service-Public.fr. Search for 'passeport' or 'carte d'identité' to find relevant information. Locate and access the general information page for passports or identity cards. Identify the general recommendation for where to submit applications. Find the section or link related to photo requirements. Determine which identity documents the photo rules apply to. Ascertain if personal presence is mandatory for the application based on photo submission requirements. Synthesize the information about the documents covered, the application location, and the personal presence requirement.
State that the information on photo rules applies to both 'Carte nationale d'identité' (National Identity Card) and 'Passeport' (Passport). State that applications should generally be submitted to the town hall ('mairie'). Confirm that personal presence is mandatory for submitting the application (implied by the requirement to provide the photo).
