The one document covered for Pitcairn is the passport. GOV.UK describes an application sent to the Pitcairn Islands Office in Auckland, New Zealand, with 2 identical new photos that follow HM Passport Office rules: 35 x 45 mm (45 mm high), head 29 to 34 mm from chin to crown, plain cream or light grey background, taken in the last month.
Overview
Pitcairn has one document page here, the passport. The Government of the Pitcairn Islands runs its administration from Auckland, New Zealand, and the GOV.UK page for the island tells applicants to send their forms and supporting documents to the Pitcairn Islands Office there. The passport comes back through the same office.
No Pitcairn page publishes a passport photo rule, so the GOV.UK instruction to follow the HM Passport Office (HMPO) rules about passport photos is the standard. The route is a downloaded paper form, so the photos are prints and no digital file is uploaded. The passport page gives the full photo rules, the travel context and the sources.
