Can I seek help from UK embassy as ONLY a resident?
score:6
Accepted answer
A British Embassy is only obliged to lend assistance to British citizens, subjects or nationals - or in other words, people with a British passport - and other EU nationals when there is no embassy or consulate for that national in that country (citation here - thankyou to DUman for pointing this out).
You have to go to the embassy of your own nationality, as even with a UK visa, you enter the UK and other countries on your own countries passport. Your visa comes with certain restrictions or entitlements while you are in the UK (for example, "no recourse to public funds", or "indefinite leave to remain") but it infers no obligation on any UK official or office to the visa holder while outside the UK.
You may have to attend a UK embassy or consulate in order to sort out your visa on any replacement passport, but they aren't obligated to help you otherwise.
