Passport fraud

Passport fraud is an act of intentional deception that involves forgery, alteration, or false use of a travel document, such as a passport. Common reasons to perpetrate passport fraud include illegally entering a country, avoiding deportation, committing financial crimes, and smuggling.

One way to commit passport fraud is through the creation of a fake passport or camouflage passport.

Misusing a passport is a crime in many jurisdictions.
