TAKING CARE OF AND RENEWING YOUR BRITISH PASSPORT

Taking care of and renewing your British passport

Your passport is an important legal document. Identity theft, passport fraud and related crime are on the increase so you need to take good care of it. 

Make sure that it is kept in a safe place, is valid and in good condition. At the back of your passport, fill in the contact details of two relatives or friends who can be contacted in case of an emergency.

The British High Commission in Nicosia no longer processes passport applications. Overseas residents can renew their passports here:

Don’t book any travel until you have a valid passport.
