How to Deregister from Consular Record When Moving to Another Consular District
When a citizen or person registered with the consulate in the UK changes their place of residence within the country (for example, from London to Edinburgh), it is important to correctly complete deregistration at the previous diplomatic office.
Objective: to submit the application correctly according to consular regulations and ensure a legally sound transition.
Actions taken by lawyers:
- – preparation of an application for deregistration using Annex 9 according to established rules;
- – confirmation of the change of residence to another consular district;
- – preparation of a supporting request for registration in the new consulate;
- – coordination of submission — either in person or remotely.

As a result, the client receives verified deregistration from the former consular district and a correct entry in the new register.
Grounds for Deregistration from Consular Record Due to Relocation to Ukraine
If a Ukrainian citizen who is on consular record returns to permanent residence in Ukraine, this is grounds for deregistration from the overseas consular record.

- – analysis of deregistration grounds — return to permanent registration in Ukraine;
- – preparation of deregistration application and supporting documents;
