Full countersign needed?

[justaphase]

Help!! I thought i didn't need new photos for my passport renewal because i can be recognized (according to my friends) from my current picture in my old passport.

My interview is noon today!! Do i have to do the whole countersign section on the form as well as signing the photos?

Yes you are required to do the countersign section on a new photo as well

UK passport?

Countersignature is NOT required if you are doing a regular replacement (not lost or stolen) and you CAN be recognised from your current passport photo.

You will need two new photos , to go into the passport .

As long as the new photos look like you in the old pp photos, then theres no need for anyone to counter sign them .

...... And you can get the photos at Trendy.

Thanks chaps...a last minute panic but it was all ok with the unsigned photos.

The life ride took longer than submitting my docs..In an out in 5 minutes.

Relief!!
