If you’re outside the UK
You cannot apply for a replacement BRP if it expires while you are outside the UK. Instead, you’ll need to apply for a ‘replacement BRP visa’, which lets you re-enter the UK once only. It costs £154.
You can apply for a replacement BRP when you return to the UK. You must do this within 3 months of its expiry unless you have a good reason, for example you were unable to return to the UK in that time.
There is no need to report itammaralvi wrote: ↑Thu Aug 05, 2021 8:54 amThanks for your reply, however, I already know that BRP cannot be issued whilst outside the U.K. My question is that when I proceed to apply for “replacement BRP visa” (from the link within your excerpt), it asks to report the expired BRP as lost or stolen, which isn’t the case in this scenario. So, how to proceed even with applying for “replacement BRP visa”?

So, I just explain the situation in the “Additional Information” section of the “replacement BRP visa” form that he couldn’t travel to the U.K. due to COVID restrictions, if I understand correctly?
Would really appreciate your help with this final point.
One last question, if I may - do I need getting a TB certificate before applying for the “replacement BRP visa”? Please keep in mind that the child has ILE, has travelled to the U.K. multiple times on ILE, but will be applying the “replacement BRP visa” from Pakistan.Zimba wrote: ↑Thu Aug 05, 2021 2:34 pmYes.ammaralvi wrote: ↑Thu Aug 05, 2021 1:50 pmThanks Zimba, much appreciated.

I was referring to the child being ILE holder at which point he had already provided the TB certificate as the "replacement BRP visa" application definitely asks to provide a TB certificate. The instructions as below whilst filling in the application (https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/visa-type):
However, when I go to the TB tests for visa applicants page (https://www.gov.uk/tb-test-visa), it has an exemption list as below:ammaralvi wrote: ↑Sat Sep 18, 2021 4:13 amI was referring to the child being ILE holder at which point he had already provided the TB certificate as the "replacement BRP visa" application definitely asks to provide a TB certificate.

To apply for a visa, you need to:
- complete the application form and answer in English
- pay for the visa fee online (in most cases)
- provide your biometrics (fingerprints and facial photograph)
- provide your tuberculosis test result (if you are resident in a country where you must take the test)
- provide your passport and other supporting evidence
