For British citizens living in Belgium, the necessity of maintaining valid travel documents is an important aspect of expatriate life.
With the advent of digital processes, renewing your UK passport from Belgium has become a streamlined online affair, but it’s not without its complexities. U.K.ABROAD is here to simplify this process, ensuring that your passport renewal process is as smooth and stress-free as possible.
Moving to Belgium means you will be joining around 1.5 million foreign-born residents alongside around 30,000 UK citizens, in a central European location.

Renewing Your UK Passport Online
The HM Passport Office has fully embraced digital innovation, requiring all UK passport renewals from abroad, including Belgium, to be completed online. This move towards digitalisation aims to make the process more efficient but comes with its own set of strict standards and meticulous requirements. A slight error in your application could lead to delays or, worse, rejection.
This is where U.K.ABROAD steps in. With our expertise and personalised support, we guide you through each step of the online application process, ensuring that your renewal meets the HM Passport Office’s stringent criteria.
When applying through U.K.ABROAD, you will be assigned a dedicated British Passport consultant to guide you through the application or renewal process from Belgium.

Turnaround Times for UK Passport Renewals from Belgium
- Renewals: Expect a turnaround time of approximately 3 to 4 weeks.
- First-time Applications: These generally take around 4 to 6 weeks.
- Lost/Stolen/Damaged Passport Replacements: The timeline for these is usually 4 to 6 weeks.
It’s important to remember that these are general guidelines and actual processing times can vary. We advise not to make any travel plans until your new passport is securely in your hands.

I had an excellent experience with U.K.ABROAD. My consultant Leigh was extremely helpful & thorough. It’s so easy to make mistakes with these sorts of things when you try & do it yourself. Leigh made sure we had all the correct documents so that there would be no issues with the passport office. I am very happy I used their services.
