LINK YOUR PASSPORT TO YOUR EVISA! Please, to best ensure smooth travels this holiday season, make sure your passport is linked to your eVisa. If you used a BRP card to create your UKVI account, your passport might not be linked to your eVisa. Unfortunately, the Home Office did not make this clear in their initial communications about eVisas. FYI, the Home Office is also telling people to carry their BRP cards when travelling until 31 March 2025. We recommend carrying a hardcopy printout of your eVisa details with you in your hand luggage when re-entering the UK too. Check out the Changes Immigration article on eVisas for more information: https://bit.ly/4fiM1ir Get in touch if you need help with your eVisa or UKVI account. #immigration #evisa #humanresources #hr #ukvisa

A much needed post as I was told by immigration officer at Heathrow last month while entering UK that my Passport isn't linked but they had no idea how to do it. This helped me at least understanding the reason behind that and will action on it asap!
