Refugee travel document
You can apply for a refugee travel document if either:
- you have refugee status in the UK
- you originally came to the UK on a family reunion visa to join someone who has refugee status
Howlong it will be valid for
If you’re settled in the UK (known as ‘indefinite leave to remain’), your document will
usually be valid for up to 10 years. If you’re 15 or under and settled in the UK, it will
usually be valid for up to 5 years.
If you have permission to stay (known as ‘leave to remain’) your document will be valid
until the end of your permission to stay in the UK.
Your document may be valid for a shorter time in some cases. For example, because
your previous document has been lost.
