PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Afghanistan: British Nationals Abroad (30 November 2021)

Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs, how many British citizens does she estimate still remain in Afghanistan.

Asked by:
Judith Cummins (Labour)

Answer

The FCDO does not routinely ask British nationals to register with a British Embassy or High Commission overseas. Recognising the circumstances in Afghanistan, British nationals still in Afghanistan were asked to register their continued presence to allow the FCDO to maintain contact after the evacuation phase ended. British nationals continue to receive updates from the FCDO on the situation in Afghanistan.
