Biometric Resident Cards are Being Replaced by eVisas

Dear Global Citizen,

eVisas are a key part of delivering a border and immigration system which will be ‘digital by default’ by 2025, a change that will enhance the customer experience,deliver excellent value, and increase the immigration system’s security and efficiency.

Customers in the UK who currently use a physical immigration document, such as a biometric residence permit (BRP), or legacy paper document such as a passport containing an ink stamp or a vignette sticker will now need to take action to create a UKVI account to access their eVisa

It is free, and straightforward for customers who hold physical immigration documents to create a UKVI account to access their eVisa. Details of how to do this are available at www.gov.uk/evisa

Updating from a physical document to an eVisa does not affect a customer’s immigration status or the conditions of a customer’s permission to enter or stay in the UK.

Guides with key eVisa information for impacted customers based on the physical or legacy paper immigration documents they hold are available for download
