DO I HAVE TO REPORT A CHANGE OF CIRCUMSTANCES TO UKVI IF I JUST RENEWED MY PASSPORT?

Hi there,

Hope you are doing well. I am foreign national working under the Skilled Worker Visa in the UK. 2 years I renewed my passport and my passport number changed but my current BRP was issued when my old passport was valid. Same nationality. Just a new passport with a difference passport number. I was wondering if I would have to report the change of passport as a change of circumstance here (https://www.gov.uk/change-circumstances-visa-brp) to the UKVI? I checked online and some said yes they did but I double-checked this page it never says the change of passport is a change of circumstances required to report here.

Thanks very much for your assistance.

IMHO, this does not warrant reporting a a change in circumstances. Your details still on BRP and if there is any questions raised during travels can be easily answered.
Not aware of anyone having issues due to this.

That's not a change of circumstance, no need to report anything.

The personal information on your BRP is related to your name on the passport, not the passport number.
