There is also information about passport photographs on the application form which must meet internationally agreed standards.
2. You will also need to submit your current or last passport during the renewal process.
3. The Passport Office will cancel your old passport when a new one is issued. It will be returned to you, but you will not be able to use it again. If the old passport has been defaced or altered, it will immediately be destroyed upon receipt of the new one.
4. If there are in your cancelled passport any unexpired visas of countries that you still wish to travel to, you will need to make enquiries with the relevant consular authority of the country concerned as to how the visa is affected.

• Completed application form
• 2 recent identical photographs
• Current or last passport

Note:

• If the details in the passport, your name for example, differ to those on the form you have completed, you will need to submit supporting documentation as evidence of that change.
• If your passport you are surrendering was restricted to a limited period or is damaged, in addition to a countersignature, you may be required to submit additional supporting documentation.

When you are surrendering a passport for renewal you will not normally require another person to sign your form unless:

• your appearance is very different from the photo in your current or last passport
• the passport you are surrendering was issued to you when you were under 16 years of age
• your passport was restricted to a limited period
• your passport is damaged

In these circumstances, you will need someone to countersign your application form and certify your photograph.
