UK Biometric Residence Permit valid for travel until 1 June 2025 and for ID use 18 months after expiry

After this extension, you can no longer use your BRPs or BRCs to prove your immigration status when traveling to the UK, except for: 

  • Getting your share code to prove your immigration status 
  • Creating a UKVI account to set up access to your eVisa 
  • Applying to stay in the UK 

Even the above are only allowed up to 18 months after your card’s expiry date. 

Be sure to set up your eVisa account now. Need personalised advice? Contact Legend Consults today! 

The Home Office extended the usability of Biometric Residence Permits (BRPs) and Biometric Residence Cards (BRCs) from 31 March 2025 to 1 June 2025 for UK travel. That’s less than two months from now.  

Millions have already switched to eVisas from physical documents in March, but it can still be challenging for those in the context of international travel, hence the new extension. Per the UK Gov, you are eligible for the extension if both of the following apply: 

  • your BRP expired on or after 31 December 2024 
  • you still have permission to stay in the UK
