Need to renew my passport in the next year or two

Kath948381

So how do I do this ? I live in a village very close to Burgas.

No way - you have to apply online to the Passport Office in the UK if you're living in BG and don't want to travel to the UK...the days of getting new passports from embassies are long gone.

As Jim says apply online, it's quite a simple process. You'll need to send you're old one back, I've done it twice for myself and my wife and we used DHL, you can use them from a lot of Econt offices, it's little expensive but paid it for peace of mind after a poor experience with Speedy sending internationally. They'll then send your old one and new one to you separately.

I've never used econt, speedy or DHL  and the nearest office is a bus ride away but I suppose needs must . Thank you PlodivEd

I did it online a couple of months ago. Easy peasy, lemon squeezy. :-)


Here's the link:


You might want to pop out to a photographer and get a new pic done. You can do it yourself, but more tricky to make sure you meet the requirements.


I too used the DHL point in my nearest Econt. Sending passports by ordinary post is a stressful (and slow) experience.


PS Don't forget the EU 10 year rule.

If I remember correctly they'll ask you for a phone number for the recipient and maybe an email, I just gave the info number, worth noting them down if they ask.
