Place of issue on british passport ?

i have a doubt, on the surrender of indian passport application, it asks for place of issue of British passport.

I couldn't find anything like that in the British passport, all i can see is IPS, is that right ?

I'm having the same problem, what is the place of issue of my UK passport? Some people say write United Kingdom. I have no idea which city in the UK issued it though. What do I put there? Just United Kingdom?

IPS is the issuing authority, if this helps.

IPS= Identity and Passport Service, this was the name used for the issuing agency before it was changed to HM Passport Office.

I don't think it matters where it was issued and maybe one would never know..I sent my son's first passport application to Newport, got a telephone call from the Liverpool office with a query regarding documentation and had to take him to the office in Plymouth for an interview.

IPS, UK should be sufficient.

Just enter 'UK', i did that and didnt had any problem, or follow the member katiewills . Both are ok

IPS has not been named as such since May 2013, it is now HM Passport Office. It is abbreviated on passports as HMPO.
