Hey guys, shortlisted 2025 ALT from the UK here. My passport expires in April 2026 (so still got a year), and I was told that the British embassy doesn't allow passport renewals in Japan?
As we have a deadline of 14th April to send our reply form, passport scan and signed T&Cs, I was thinking that if I applied for a passport renewal now (in the UK) then it will be cutting it quite close to that deadline. My plan was to send a scan of my current passport, apply for a new passport and get it sometime in late April/early May, then fill out the revisions form (this has a deadline of 1st June).
Does this seem reasonable or is there probably a better way of doing this? Any advice would be massively appreciated. Thanks!
