We have set up a new improved online registration service called LOCATE for British nationals travelling or living abroad to register themselves with the FCO.

In order to use LOCATE, you will need to register separately. But you will only need to register once. British nationals who are either resident in or visiting any country abroad, whether for business or pleasure, should register their details online. The registration details will remain on LOCATE. Details of your visits or residence abroad will not remain after their end date. LOCATE will accept details of travel abroad up to one year ahead. Please note that an existing subscription to the FCO's Online Services will not allow access to LOCATE.
 
The registration system allows the British Embassy to help you in the following ways:

• to contact you in case of emergency
• to inform you of changes in the security situation in Ukraine or elsewhere
• to liaise with you if your family/friends cannot make direct contact with you. (However, in compliance with the UK Data Protection Act, personal information contained in the register will not be disclosed to a third party without your written consent.)
