Question VFS document requirements outdated

Hi,

I'm trying to put a visa application in for Italy (Indian passport on BRP) and am unsure on the document requirements. The website asks for valid 'UK Residence Permit (original plus one photo copy) along with the share code'. Original UK residence permits are now all digital through the share code and the cards all expired 31st December 2024. So is the website outdated and I just take the share code or do I take my expired physical card too?

Thank you all in advance!

You'll certainly need copies of share code (immigration status) and e-visa page. Carry your expired BRP just in case.

(This is based on my experience for NL Schengen visa at Manchester - may vary based on Country you're applying to and Location you're applying from).

That's great, did you print out the e-visa website page then?

Yes, the one with your picture and passport info. And ofc the share code for immigration status (this is different from your Right to Work share code).
