The Armed Forces Carer’s Passport helps Service personnel balance care responsibilities with work needs.
To complete your Carer’s Passport and access detailed guidance on its use, refer to the Defence Instruction Notice (DIN) reference 2024DIN01-126: Armed Forces Carers Passport Guidance and Implementation.
The Armed Forces Carer’s Passport is designed to help Service personnel with caregiving responsibilities.
The passport records discussions between a Service person with caregiving duties and their manager. It reduces the need for repeat discussions when moving roles or managers and documents agreed arrangements.
The passport belongs to the carer, who provides a copy to their manager.
It is updated annually or as circumstances change and can be shared with career managers to inform assignment planning.
