Countersigning Passport as Director
Sinn0h
Posts: 1 Newbie
I am countersigning a passport for someone as a director of a limited company. Under the "Profession, professional qualifications or position in the community," would I simply just put Director? Or Director of ***? Something else? Does not specify.
Thanks

If there is space, put "director" and the company name. The more information, the better.0

Company Director is (should be) sufficient.The questions that get the best answers are the questions that give most detail....0

One thing to remember. A company director is fine as to counter sign a passport application but only if the company is VAT registered.0

Not true, the list includes these entries:- chairman or director of a limited company
- director, manager or personnel officer of a VAT-registered company
So at director level it makes no difference whether the company is VAT-registered or not.

I'll hold my hand up and say my mistake.
I read (misread actually) this:director, manager or personnel officer of a VAT-registered company0
