Fields returned for the United Kingdom residence permit are displayed above the blank line in the following table. Fields that will return no information are displayed below the blank line. An F denotes that the field will be returned if the front of the card is sent, a B denotes that the field will be returned if the back of the card is sent, and F/B denotes that the field will be returned if the front and back of the card are sent.

The Returned as column shows the normalized format the data will be returned as. A DateOfBirth that is formatted as dd mmm/mmm yy on the card will return the data in the YYYY-MM-DD for the DateOfBirth field according to the rules in the following table, for example.

Some fields are validated against certain rules. Not all fields have validation rules. For fields that have a validation rule, a description of the rule will be included in the Validation Rules column. In the Returned as and Validation Rules columns, a capital A denotes any letter, a 1 denotes any number, a ? can either be a letter or a number, and any other symbol, such as a hyphen, used is literal.
