  • British Pasport Law

    When trying to obtain my post Brexit Visa in Germany the German immigration took my UK passport from me then after waiting for 6 hours (so far all this part is usual) but then when Ive gone to leave they issued me document saying that Berlin (where I have lived since 2016) is no longer the responsible authority and A place almost 500KM away in the South of Germany (where I have never even been to or heard of) is now responsible for me.
    They then informed me (as if they was doing me a favor) that my passport has been posted ahead of me and they are refusing to give it back.
    I have always been told that a UK passport is property of the Crown??
    Surely this is not legal?
    Can anyone advice me please? I really need help.
    Many thanks

    If you live in Berlin, have you spoken to the British Embassy. Obviously without a passport you are rather stuck in the Schengen area (mind you, worse places to be stuck).

      German law probably applies when dealing with German authorities in Germany.
