Do I need to provide proof of legal stay in the country where I am renewing my passport? I am in Great Britain since 2022.

03.12.2025 09:48:28 From a legal perspective, the requirements for passport renewal depend on the issuing country of your passport, which you haven't specified. If you are renewing a foreign (non-UK) passport at your country's embassy or consulate in Great Britain, many countries require proof of legal residence or stay in the UK (such as a visa, residence permit, or other immigration documents) to access consular services. This is to ensure you are legally present in the jurisdiction served by that diplomatic mission. For UK passports, if you are a British citizen renewing in the UK, proof of legal stay is typically not required as citizenship grants you the right to reside. However, if you are abroad or in a specific situation, additional documentation might be needed. Since you've been in Great Britain since 2022, confirm your passport's issuing country and check with the relevant authority for exact requirements, as rules can vary.

04.12.2025 14:47:08 When renewing a Ukrainian international passport abroad, consular authorities may request proof of your lawful stay in the host country. This requirement is based on consular regulations allowing missions to verify that the applicant resides within their jurisdiction. In the UK, acceptable evidence may include a visa, BRP, residence permit, immigration status letter, or proof of temporary protection schemes, such as Homes for Ukraine or Ukraine Extension Scheme. While some consulates process applications without strict documentation of status, many still ask for it to confirm jurisdiction and prevent duplicate applications in different countries. Since you have been in Great Britain since 2022, you should bring any document confirming your current legal status. Our legal service can assess which documents are sufficient and ensure your application meets all consular requirements.
