    It's not in EU so do they have permission to live here / work here ?
    No idea how you'd check that but isn't that a LLs responsibility nowadays ?
    I'm all confused. I thought there was an actual government agency who purpose is to check whose coming in and whose leaving.

    Then I suggest you start a campaign to get the The Immigration Act 2014 repealled.

    Yes. However, s20 (Residential Tenancy Agreement) and related sections came into force in England only on 1 Feb 2016.

    It is presumably only a matter of time, but I cannot find any mention of it coming into force yet in the rest of UK.

    Don't be surprised if they sub-let the property (even if the tenancy agreement forbids it).

    I think it would be very easy to forge, eg how would i know if it was a valid one. (I realise it would be difficult to forge if you had a reader that read eh chip and knew what shoudl be on it, etc but just looking ata chunk of plastic with some words on it and a chip, easy peasy.

    I don't, but I actually have one and know what they look like, so there is that.
