In our region, we work across political, commercial, security and economic areas of interest to the UK and provide consular assistance to British nationals in our region.

We provide services to British nationals living in and visiting Florida, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands.

Get an emergency travel document

You can apply for an emergency travel document if you’re abroad and your passport has been lost or stolen, damaged or expired, and you can’t get a new or replacement passport in time to travel.
