Biometric Residence Permit (BRP)

A Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) is a document issued by the UK government to foreign nationals who have been granted permission to live, work, or study in the UK for an extended period. It contains personal details, a photograph, and biometric data such as fingerprints and facial recognition. The BRP serves as official proof of immigration status, allowing individuals to access services like employment, healthcare, and travel within the UK. It’s an important legal document that must be kept safe and renewed if necessary.
