Passport

Countersigning passport applications and photos

 
o    If you are member, associate or fellow of a professional body
You can countersign passports. (Was there some sort of code to quote at one time either from IET or ECuk?)

If you’re applying in the UK


Your counter signatory must:
o    live in the UK
o    Have a current British or Irish passport.

 
My question is was there some sort of code to quote with your signature either from IET or ECuk (Do anyone remember what it was)?
My second question is an Irish resident can countersign a British Passport, can a UK citizen countersign for an Irish/EU Passport.

 
Only asking thinking of getting an Irish/EU passport, although UK gave them billions (and they are asking billions more to leave, already they are getting a bit iffy at the mainland EU airport when they see a UK passport ,queue slower, probably imagination but may as well join the million that have applied for Irish passport since Brexit. £80 it costs.
Make it easier to go straight through the “EU” only queue in the future.

 
(You can’t sign for yourself of course but want to sign for some else).

    Are you an Irish citizen?

    If you aren't and you want an Irish passport via the 'grandparent' route you will first need to go through the Foreign Birth registration process which will cost you 278 euro in direct fees plus the fees paid to the national registrars for certified copies needed to prove your entitlement.

    A professional engineer, chartered or otherwise, is unable to countersign your Foreign Birth Registration, no doubt the same is true for a passport application.


    Once you have got you 'EU' citizenship you might get a European tax indentity in future years. Someone has to make up the UK contribution and it might as well be you!
