British Passport : United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland (1969) Temporary Passport for Resident of Gibraltar

British Passport was issued to a 19-year-old Mr. Paul Hector Cavilla in 1969. The passport was issued in London due to his report of losing his document. The passport was extended twice to the maximum prolongation of 10-year validity.

Interesting, this document was issued using 10-year validity passport where there is no space for Renewals. However, the Passport Office in Gibraltar did extend the passport twice by way of rubber-stamping on page 5 under Observations.
 
This passport is hereby extended
valid until

First extension was made after the passport has expired by eight months. Valid for 13 months.

Second extesion was made after the first extension validity expired by six months. It was valid for 7 years and 6 months, the last date for the passport can be valid for per regulations number 2.

BACK COVER (INTERIOR) NOTES & REGULATIONS
 
NOTES

1. British passports are issued and serviced by the competent authorities in the United Kingdom, Channel Islands, and Colonies, by Her Majesty’s Diplomatic and Consular Officers in foreign countries and by British High Commissioners in Commonwealth countries. PASSPORTS SHOULD NOT BE SENT FROM ONE COUNTRY TO ANOTHER BY POST.

2. A passport is valid for ten years, unless otherwise stated, If issued to a child under sixteen years of age it is normally valid for five years in the first instance but may be extended for a further five years without further charge. A passport which is ten years old or has no further space for visas must be replaced by a new one.

3. The possession of a passport does not exempt the holder from compliance with any immigration regulations in force in any territory or from the necessity of obtaining a visa or permit where required. Passports endorsed as valid for the Commonwealth are available for travel to territory under British protection or trusteeship. It should however be noted, in this connexion, that the majority of British territories overseas have immigration restrictions applicable to British subjects as well as aliens.

4. A passport including particulars of the holder’s wife is not available for the wife's use when she is travelling alone.

5. Children who have reached the age of sixteen years require separate passports.
 
Registration at Her Majesty’s Consulates in Foreign Countries

British nationals resident in foreign countries who are entitled to the protection of the United Kingdom authorities should at the earliest opportunity register their names and addresses at the nearest British Consulate. Failure to do so may in a period of national emergency result in difficulty or delay in according them assistance and protection. Registration should be renewed annually, preferably in January. Changes of address or departure from the country should also be notified to the Consulate.
 
Dual Nationality

United Kingdom nationals who are also nationals of another country cannot be protected by Her Majesty’s representatives against the authorities of that country. If, under the law of that country, they are liable for any obligation (such as military service), the fact that they are United Kingdom nationals does not exempt them from it.

A person having some connexion with a Commonwealth or foreign country (e.g. by birth, by descent through either parent, by marriage or by residence) may be a national of that country, in addition to being a national of the United Kingdom. Acquisition of British nationality by a foreigner does not necessarily cause the loss of nationality of origin.
 
Caution

This passport remains the property of Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom and may be withdrawn at any time. It is a valuable document and should not be altered in any way or allowed to pass into the possession of an unauthorised person.

Only after exhaustive enquiries can a new passport be issued to replace one lost or destroyed. Any case of loss or destruction should be immediately reported to the local police and to the nearest British passport issuing authority (e.g. the Passport Office, Clive House, Petty France, London S.W.1; British Consulate British High Commission or Colonial authority). The passport of a deceased person should be submitted for cancellation to the nearest such passport authority or to any United Kingdom Employment Exchange: it will be returned on request.
