  http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometric_passport http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biometric_passport really? You'd have to find a country not using biometric passports, and a country allowing entrance with non-biometric passports to begin with. Then add photo and forging the actual paper. I wouldn't call that easy.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ambassador_%282011_film%29 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Ambassador_%282011_film%29 this Danish guy obtained a diplomatic Liberian passport and went to Central Africa to deal diamonds, and was interviewed even by the head of intelligence there. I won't spoil what failed on his journeys, but obtaining papers while a bit hard, wasn't impossible. > a country allowing entrance with non-biometric passports haven't heard of it tbh. a passport has to be valid. since Polish passports have 10 year validity, you can travel today with an old passport from late 2003. now I checked Canada demands a visa from Poles who have an old passport, not sure about, uhm, the vast whole rest of the world. forging docs is 'the easy part', not 'easy' per se. what's challenging is crossing borders if you're on the run - you need some expertise about their security habits and diplomatic relations. if you got into criminal shit and Interpol is after you, you're screwed anyway, if they can track down top level mobsters hiding in a foreign village, they will track down an amateur.
