Hi Daniellem

There's nothing stopping him applying for a new passport upon release and this is often needed by employers when proving that somebody has the right to work in the UK.

However, he will need the permission of probation to travel abroad and the general presumption is that somebody on Licence is only able to travel in exceptional circumstances. With this in mind, he may feel that it will be worth waiting until his Licence has finished.

Hope this helps.

hi friends below i am sharing the needed documents for passport

Other identity documents are accepted if you don’t have a biometric passport.
a current passport
a biometric residence permit (formerly known as the identity card for foreign nationals)
a UK certificate of naturalisation
Send the original document with your driving licence application. Photocopies or laminated certificates are not accepted.
