No - the airline or port authorities won't know what it is and always err on the side of caution (big fines if they get it wrong).mariamuk wrote:I thought to show certificate after ceremony or that wont be enough?
Has this travel been already booked in advanece, in anticipation of your BC being approved before the trip commences? If yes, some members have travelled using their cert and cancelled BRP (not returning it to HO within 5 days, risking the fine) without incident, however the risks are there (fine, airline boarding refusal). Those people were lucky but they took a huge risk. They might advise you that its fine, they had no problems with it. Bear in mind airline security has tightened in the times that we live in, in the wake of current events. And no, its not scaremongering, those are the facts and rules.mariamuk wrote:Hello
I have a quick question - will I be able to travel after ceremony as I would have to give away
the BRP card back within 5 days?
Will I show Certificate at the boarder?
Thank you

You are only British once you attend your ceremony. JCAP process means you should receive your passport within a few days of ceremony. You have 90 days from the date of your ceremony to travel on your Indian passport without incurring penalties.tamilmaran wrote:Casa wrote:How will you have a British passport to return with?

Dear CASA and all members,
My sincere thanks to all of you....
I have applied through JCAP and got my approval letter today. Seeing the trend, i hope , I may get my passport in 4-6 weeks after my ceremony. My question is can I travel out to India by Indian passport and return by British passport. ( Thought of using the school holidays to go to India )
Thanks and regards
If you have a British passport you won't need a visa.tamilmaran wrote:Thanks CR001 for the reply.
I am aware that 90 days grace period. My question is once I have surrendered my BRP. , I think I wont be having any problem in traveling to India with my Indian passport. While returning can I use my British passport (I will not have any visa status to get back to UK)
Thanks in advance...
In the OP's case this won't be required as they say they will be travelling with a British passport.johnch121 wrote:You can fax a copy of your BRP to the airline before you return it, phone the airline to check they have received it and are happy with it. Then get them to email you to confirm that you are good to fly.
