Passport return request

Post by richmond332 » Sun Jul 17, 2011 4:10 pm

Hi all,

How long do we have to expect for our passports to be return from the moment of dispatching the documents? Because my spouse is still doing the phd in sweden and need to go back..

Any experience of requesting passport return?

oh, we haven't sent the documents yet. But we decided to send my spouse's EU identity card, instead of passport.

By the way, within EU countries, EU citizens can freely move with EU identity card (without passport) but not UK. UK require passport, so EU identity card is not enough to entre the UK.

That is not correct in general, I can enter the UK without any problems with my German government-issued ID card. But for some reason the Swedish ID card seems troublesome for the UK, Wikipedia agrees with your account.

You can come to even UK as well with EU ID card.
