Updating your contact details

Guidance on how to view and update your contact details on your University record.

Update your contact details

You must update your contact details if they change.

This includes your:

  • email address (personal email, not ‘@bristol.ac.uk’) 
  • phone number (starting ‘+’ and a 2-digit code) 
  • term-time address  
  • home address (not an agent’s address)
  • emergency contact.

If you live in University accommodation, your term-time address updates automatically. 

You must provide both a term-time and home address. They can be the same.

Student Visa holders

If you have a Student Visa, you must update your details if there are changes to your:

  • UK contact address (term-time address)
  • phone number
  • emergency contact details.

This is part of your visa responsibilities. It is a UKVI requirement.
