Im currently applying to open a bank account in France. The application form stated that a certified copy of my passport must be sent. To get a certified copy you had to get a Guard/Doctor/Solicitor to take a photocopy of it, stamp it and write "Original viewed" followed by their name, title, and date. I decided to bring my passport to "the boys in blue" and ask them to give me a certified copy. They told me they couldn't do that, it was illegal for them and quoted me a section of the criminal justice act. This didn't make sense to me. I eventually got my bank to sign it. I wonder would the "boys in blue" be able to certify copies of my utility bills!
