Rescind Residency
Due to a change of circumstances how does one go about this as a UK national?

Re: Rescind Residency
What do you mean ? What residency do you possess which you are contemplating renouncing ?

Re: Rescind Residency
Thank you Chislenko. Exactly right. I wish to drop my Portuguese residency that I took out last year.

Re: Rescind Residency
I googled "Leaving Portugal and Moving On" and Angloinfo seem to cover most of the 'angles' that others have spoken of on here on a piecemeal basis. I would have to assume that getting your UK driver's license back would be straight-forward if you had exchanged it. HTH

I believe I read on DVLA site that one can use a PT (EU) licence in UK if resident there (UK) if it's already been exchanged or too much hassle to change back. Not sure how it would work for renewal though.

I'm pretty sure you can just apply to DVLA to reinstate your UK licence if you return to live there.
