Enforcement Instructions and Guidance


This manual contains guidance and information for officers dealing with enforcement immigration matters within the United Kingdom.

We have sought to present this manual in a form suitable for public disclosure but there is a small amount of material that cannot be disclosed because it may damage the effectiveness of the immigration control.

The masculine form is used throughout the manual to mean both he and she. The manual is a living document and is subject to change. Some sections may be unavailable if they are currently being updated.
