Can Someone Else Attend My Passport Appointment For Me in the UK?
If you’ve booked a UK passport appointment but can’t attend it yourself, you’re not alone. Many people face emergencies, last-minute work trips, or simply live too far from the nearest passport office. The big question is: can someone go to your passport appointment for you?
Here’s the answer:
Yes, with the correct documentation, a trusted representative can attend your passport appointment on your behalf. But there are strict rules and steps you must follow to ensure your application isn’t delayed or rejected.
