Wait, you submit a photo?? Is there no electronic ID card in the UK?
Can confirm we don't have an official identification card, let alone electronic ones.
We use driving licences for that purpose. And kids in my area get child identification cards, but I'm not sure if that's a national thing or not. (The name of the card has the county in it, hence why I'm not sure).
What if you're an adult without a driver's licence?
I'm not sure if this is unique to the UK or not, but if you don't have a full licence, you can apply for a provisional; the pre-requisites being the following:
So most people have a licence in the UK, regardless of whether they can drive. Usually so we don't have to carry our passports to the pub when we turn 18. (Which also isn't unheard of here).
I don't live in the UK, so i don't have the answer.
