Hi Folks, applying for Non-O from UK as British Citizen. I have passport issued in 2024 which does not show place of issue.

Passport has field for 'Authority' showing HMPO. Should I enter this for the place of issue?

Many thanks in advance.

His Majesty’s Passport Office is the official place of issue. HMPO is the acronym.
