It doesn't. Ebay asked me for a scan of my passport a while ago. I changed all of the details, including my name, and they accepted it.

Interesting. Do you mind me asking why they required a passport? Seems a bit off.
They asked because I hadn't logged in for two years. I only use Ebay when I have no alternative.
