The New UK Passport


From this October if you apply for a new passport you’ll receive one of the exciting new look passports. Designed to beat the counterfeiters and terrorists this is the first new passport design to be issued since 2006 when the new electronic chip was added.


What’s new in the 2010 passport?
As well as enhanced security features there are a range of images of popular UK tourist attractions added to the pages. You’ll find iconic images such as the White Cliffs of Dover, Ben Nevis and the Giant’s Causeway.


The security chip is now hidden inside the cover meaning it’s more difficult to replace without causing visible damage. You’ll also notice that the personal details have moved from the back page to the second page and there is also an additional photograph of the owner (double the embarrassment!)
