Travel to United Kingdom

What do I do if my passport has expired?

You can apply for a passport even if your current passport has expired. If your current Swedish passport / ID card is no longer valid, you can bring another valid ID document to prove your identity (British ID cards, including driving licenses, are also accepted).

If your passport has expired and you do not have another valid ID document, you must bring someone with you to your booked appointment who can prove your identity. This person ​​needs to bring a valid ID document and proof of your relationship. An example of this can be a bill stating both of your names thus proving that you live together; an employment contract showing that you are colleagues; or a birth certificate proving your relationship. A full list of who can prove your identity and required documentation can be found here.
