British passport changes its colour
After the UK leaves EU, British citizens will receive passports in blue colour. This change will be effective from October 2019. Existing red passports will remain valid until they expire.
Red British passports have existed for almost 30 years since the United Kingdom joined the European Union and adopted a European style of passports.
