I think for things like copying personal ID documents, it's enough.
But iIf I'm in error, please direct me where I can get correct information.

Because, if local laws require hotels to identify every guest, what is 
the difference between a photocopy and a copy of every field on a 
computer (giving up the signature)?
Or how to make a delegation, even for taking a registered mail?

So, this is why it is so strange for me to read copying ID documents is 
unlawful.
