Make it fit your departure
- Start with your expected departure date and whether you plan to return.
- Work through the sections, ticking completed tasks and marking anything that does not apply.
- Keep a separate note of the dates, confirmations and unanswered questions you need to follow up.
This checklist provides general practical guidance. Requirements depend on your circumstances. It does not replace individual legal, immigration, tax or insurance advice. Use the official sources in the checklist and confirm the requirements that apply to you.
