BRITISH PASSPORT REFEREE | ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW | UK PASSPORT

In this video, I have shown the steps that a Passport Referee needs to do to confirm an applicant’s identity during their British Passport application.
You may forward this video to your chosen referee so they will have an idea on what they need to do.
I hope that this helps you on your British Passport application online.

    Contact the British embassy, they'll tell you what to do, provided he actually is a British citizen. Simply being born in the UK is not enough, at least one parent needs to be either a British citizen or hold indefinite leave to remain.
