I don't know the current situation, 30 years ago there was a period where my wife was working on her foreign passport + a letter from immigration. (Which was a total joke as the letter had no anti-tamper measures whatsoever, nor was any verification done against their data. I do not recall the state of technology back then to know how high end a setup you would need to forge it--with modern tech I could easily forge it with the stuff within 3' of me as I write this.)
