What is Consular
Registration?
It is advisable for British
nationals to register their presence with the British Consulate in the relevant
country.
Why
should you Register?
This allows the FCO to keep in
touch with British nationals when they are overseas and provide consular
assistance in the event of an emergency.
How to Register?
The FCO has set up a new
improved online registration service called LOCATE for British nationals
travelling or living abroad to register themselves with the FCO.
British Nationals who are either resident in or visiting any country abroad,
whether for business or pleasure, should register their details online. The
registration details will remain on LOCATE. Details of your visits or residence
abroad will not remain after their end date. LOCATE will accept details of
travel abroad up to one year ahead.
The FCO is confident that this new service will improve its ability to provide help
in crisis situations and reduce delay and worry in times of stress for family
and friends at home.
