Re: Uk passport renewal from Italy
I sent mine in a kind of reinforced cardboard envelope. Make sure UPS get your email address so that they can send you the address labels to print out.

Re: Uk passport renewal from Italy
I sent all mine in a jiffy envelope and it arrived safely.
12.08.2021 paid HM for new passport
31.08.2021 documents received by HM from Italy (poste italiane)
as of today I am still waiting to receive the new passport (website says 4-6 weeks but up to 10). Hope it arrives soon because I need it.
How long did it take for anyone else who has recently had a new passport issued?

That is great info Pugliese ....thanks, ..............hopefully your passport does indeed arrive soon. I'm going to have to just go for it myself and hope for the best. I seem to recall you can get some sort of 'emergency' passport if required but I'd much prefer not to have to go down that route.
Fingers crossed !

Re: Uk passport renewal from Italy
Thank you for your passport application. Unfortunately you did not enclose all necessary supporting documents.
If your documents are not in English, you must also send in an English translation. This must be attached to the original document and signed to confirm that it is a true translation of the original document. The person who completes the translation and signs the confirmation must be registered with an official organisation or trade body for translators, or employed by a recognised translation company.
Received the above-mentioned mail this morning. I'm in a right pickle now! I sent HM my new carta di identità front and back which shows the residency, obviously in my maiden name because I live in Italy and of course my old British passport which is in my married name as it has been for the last 30 years i.e. done 3 renewals, no problem!
I've been to the Comune and asked if they can give me a certificato di residenza in English with my maiden name sposata .......
No, signora, nothing in English and we can only give you a normal certificato di residenza and a certificato di matrimonio which shows your husband's name, all in Italian.
So, what do I send HM, remembering I have to have it all translated by a certified translator!
Don't think I'll be going on my cruise in November .....
and I thought it was going to be so easy to get a new passport online .....
What you need to do

Te first thing to do is to check EXACTLY what they are looking for. If it is just confirmation of address, then I would imagine any recent letter from a 'reputable' UK source (government department, or maybe bank or insurance society) would do. If they really want proof of residence, then I can see there being a major problem.

Searching on internet I found Allegato X for residency which is also bi-lingual Italian/English so I've asked them to fill that in and attach the Italian original.

Re: Uk passport renewal from Italy
I think people are missing the point here. She is applying for a passport renewal (same as the one before, i.e. in her MARRIED NAME) and the UK are insisting on proof of residency (but I presume that they mean address???) in that name. Which, as she seems to be registered in Italy in her MAIDEN NAME, won't easily (if at all) be done by the Italian authorities.
