Use our new LOCATE service to tell us where you’re travelling to so our embassy and crisis staff can provide better assistance in an emergency such as a tsunami or terrorist attack.
It only takes a few minutes to register your contact details and travel plans online and the local British embassy will know you’re coming. There’s no need to contact them directly.
Going on another trip? Simply, login and update your Locate account and we’ll let the next British embassy know.

Benefits of registering with LOCATE?
We’re confident Locate will improve our ability to provide help in crisis situations and reduce delay and worry in times of stress for family and friends at home.
We’re encouraging ALL British Nationals travelling and living overseas to register with LOCATE, even for short trips.
Complete the short online registration form.
You only need to register for the service once and then update your account when you make a new trip abroad. You can even add planned trips abroad up to a year ahead.
I’ve already subscribed to the Foreign Office’s Online Services - is this the same thing?
No, you still need to register with LOCATE.
No, but you can quickly subscribe for country travel advice email alerts.
