PD2 form for newly married couples and civil partners

A person who is getting married or forming a civil partnership, and who will be going abroad immediately after the ceremony, can apply to Her Majesty's Passport Office for a new ten-year British passport to be issued in their new name, up to three months before their wedding or civil ceremony.

The new passport will be 'post-dated' to the date of the ceremony. This means they can't use it until the ceremony has taken place.

The Superintendent Registrar who will perform the ceremony, would complete Part 1 of this form. This will confirm that the ceremony has been arranged.

The form should then be given to the applicant who should complete Part 2. They must then include the completed form with their passport application.

The Superintendent Registrar will retain this a portion of the form in order to inform HM Passport Office if the ceremony is either cancelled or postponed, as the passport must not then be used by the holder.

Please email rbdm@wirral.gov.uk to arrange an appointment.

There is a £15 charge for this service. This can be paid by card at the appointment.

Additional fees apply, paid to the passport office at GOV.UK
