Proof of Form Filing (UKBF) You must only assume that a form has been filed correctly when you are in possession of a receipt number. This will be displayed on your list of GARs.
As user you are assumed to be the commander of the aircraft. If you complete on behalf of the commander (PiC), for example you are sharing the flight then responsibility may be joint, but the named owner/operator is assumed to be the person responsible and the Pilot stated on the crew manifest is assumed to be the active commander. Both may be liable under the new Electronic Visa permission to travel system. You, the user are solely responsible for the information submitted. No data is changed or stored and is submitted as is to UKBF when a UKBF journey is involved. If there are errors, again the user is responsible for cancelling the submitted form. Cancellations can only be made in advance of the departure time. See the usage disclaimer below.

Automated AccessThis site is authorised for use through a manually operated web browser only, you may not attempt to interface to it directly from any other source. All connections to the site are carefully monitored and access may be suspended if any suspicious activity is noticed.
Suspension of Services We reserve the right to suspend your access to the service if you are believed to be in breach of these terms and conditions. In the event of your service being suspended, you will have no further access to your data.
Fees : The apps are free to use. However the service does cost annually to run and we entreat members to donate somewhere around a round of drinks each year to keep the service live. There will be a donate button on this site. Benefits of donors are that nag screens will not appear and there is some speed up in submission .
Service Availability: We make best endeavours to keep the service up and running 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. However, we cannot guarantee the service will always be available. Generally there is not much that our servers do – we do not store data, and your device app will always give you access to your data. Interruptions to service to UKBF are under their control. We will endeavour to make sure it is clear whether their service is available. There are few disruptions to the UKBF service but they have occasional maintenance windows which can be up to 12 hours
