From 1900 onwards, passports include a photo and generally consist of several pages and records containing lineage information for those from Algeria and Tunisia (some records are written in French if born in North Africa)
The archives generally send them on a CD-ROM (or by photocopy?) the cost in 2010 was 2 euros per CD + the number of photos on it charged at 30 cents per photo.

There are two kinds of search:
- Search a criterion (criteria) on a column (columns) with the use of the boxes below the column headings
- Search a criterion (criteria) on multiple columns using footer filters
In both cases, the search is started automatically after entering your search parameters.
It is possible to simultaneously use both types of search.
A search is always done by searching all occurrences that begin with the criterion.
For example, if you entered "Gio" on the name of the husband, it will result in "Gio Batta", "Giovanni", ...
In addition, it is possible to make the search more generic using the operator "%".
For example, if you entered "Marg%rita" in the name of the wife, it will result in "Margarita", "Margharita", "Margherita", ...
