Hi Alldoes anyone know if you have to have your photo taken for a season lift pass in Bansko and is it possible to book one from the uk at the start of the season.
i know you have to have it taken when buying at the kiosk.
many thanks for your replies in advance

No - photos are not required for any of the Bulgarian Ski Resort lift passes.

has that changed in the last two years petere: lift pass
No - it's always been the case.re: lift pass
In answer to the actual question, despite the above advice, Bansko at least requires you to have a photo ID on your lift pass, and it is not possible to order one in the UK. A photo is taken when you buy a pass at the Gondola and is automatically put onto the pass to prevent the old swapping passes routine.
I think I might be right in saying that if you buy a ski pack from the travel operators then a non photo pass is included, but for independants a photo pass is required.
I dont know ...

I dont know about Pamporovo or Borovets.

He has asked about a season pass, Steve c can possibly help more with this as he lives their, your pass is never checked as they work in your pocket.
re: lift pass
My season pass in Bansko last year had my photo on it - incredibly poor quality webcam thing that they shove in your face at the kiosk. But it is on the system and you can just about make out that its me and they do have the capacity to check it at most of the lifts. Although I would say the chances of being caught are extremely small.
re: lift pass
Season pass definately requires pic, and can only be bought here. Would suggest when buying to wear hat, even sunglasses, as when you let your mate borrow it, he only has to wear the same hat 
They are checked, every pass will display a pic on the lift comp, the gondola especially, and in my experience (got caught using Scottish ladies pass) is frowned upon (like being thrown off the mountain for three days)... fortunately had a friend in Ulen security, so only had to give up the pass.. ...

re: lift pass
you need a photo for a seasons pass in Boro, but not for anything less
