Do I need to register with the police ?
Look at the stamp in your passport or entry clearance sticker - it will tell you if you need to register at the police station. If you do need to register then don't panic! You've got 7 days to do so, and the police will come to campus during induction - see the Big Bath Welcome for details.
How do I register with the police?
Within 7 days of arriving in the UK, go to the police station in Manvers Street, Bath (tel: 01225 842447). Ask for the Nationality Office, and give them the following:
- £34 cash
- Your passport
- Two passport-sized photographs
- Your letter of acceptance from the University.
You can register at the police station from 07:30-13:00 and 14:00-15:00, Monday to Friday. You don't need an appointment.
Tell the police if later in the year you change your address or extend your visa.
