British Passport renewal
 

Oh! forgot to ask in my last thread.

A member of my family in Bim will need to renew her British Passport in a year or so, and was told recently that she could no longer do this in Barbados and that she would have to apply via the States.

Does anyone know if this is true? She is now 80 and is a bit nervous about doing this.

It's true.

Use a secure method to send/return documents, etc.

That's a shame.

Thanks for your prompt reply JAJ.

I think someoen will give you more idea in the new year but its all going thru washington now but they can do it with the help of the British High comission in Bim they will tell them what to do

I think Dipity is correct.. have the family member go to the British High Commission at Collymore Rock and they should be able to assist.. Not issue, but give guidance

Would that also work the otherway around as my new passport is awaiting for my return to the island for collection. Could I not arrange for collection from the High Commission in London?
