I lost my passport in Scotland and got a new one. How can I get a new British visa?

If you lose your passport and visa, you should contact the China Embassy to apply for a new passport, and then contact the British Home Office to apply for a new visa, as follows:

First go to the police station for the record. In this way, if someone finds it and sends it to the police station, they will inform you as soon as possible. After filing, you can start preparing to reissue it. Pay attention to the report of loss reporting given to you by the police station.

Passport replacement procedures are as follows:

1) Applicants must first make an appointment on the website of the Chinese Embassy in Britain, and then they must go to the embassy or consulate for an interview in person on time. At that time, please take the initiative to show the appointment credentials to the security personnel and window staff.

2) Those who fail to arrive on time after making an appointment must make an appointment again.

3) The contents filled in at the time of booking must be consistent with the actual situation.

4) The applicant shall submit the following application materials:

A, 1 H- 1 application form (it can be printed online after the appointment is successful).

B, recent front color bareheaded 2-inch passport photos.

C. If you lose your passport, please submit a copy of it.

If you have a "green card", please submit the original and copy.

E. One of the following documents or their copies: ① domestic ID card ② domestic household registration book ③ birth certificate ④ innocence certificate ⑤ graduation certificate ⑤ other documents that can prove identity.

F. Certificate of loss reporting of the police station

G. Successful appointment does not necessarily mean that the application will be approved. After acceptance, the Consulate General and the Embassy must report to China to verify the relevant situation, and do not handle urgent or expedited services. It usually takes 7-8 weeks.

Regarding the change of British visa, the following are the details:

After you get a new passport, you need to apply for a new visa at the Ministry of the Interior. Reissuing a visa is not as complicated as applying for renewal of a British visa. You need to bring your passport, a statement from the police station and explain the situation to the guards at the entrance of the Ministry of the Interior. Not from London. You need to make an appointment by phone first.

After you get a new passport, you must apply to the Ministry of the Interior to transfer your visa to a new passport. The cost is 160. The required materials are two passport photos, an application form, a visa copy of the first passport, the original registration form of the police station, the original report of loss of the police station and your new passport.
