How Do I Change Contacts in a British Passport?
Updating your British passport information to identify next of kin is vital help for the emergency services in the event you experience illness or accident. It is important to keep these details up to date rather than risk delays if telephone numbers are out of use or the person listed has moved. Current details will speed up the process of getting help and support for the ill or injured traveler or for arranging a flight back, and are crucial in the event of loss of life.
