WP Visa and new passport

Alishah · Post by **Alishah** » Sun Dec 20, 2009 11:28 am

Hi.
I came back to home with three years remaining WP visa on my passport, since my passport was to renew, and renewal was made in my home country.

Now; after a month I will be coming back to UK on new passport, old one attached with WP document part.

Please tell me; do I need anything else? or this is normal. I hear from someone that I need to send new passport to BHC to stemp the WP.

Advise please.

As long as you've got your old passport stapled/attached to the new with the leave to remain stamp on it, it should be OK for you to re-enter again.

I would however though confirm this by calling the UKBA helpline.

I have dropped an e-mail to UKBA e-mail address and waiting for answer. Thanks for your reply anyway.

I agree with Djzack...

As long as you carry both the passport's together you do not need to transfer it to the new passport..
