Passporting a Prospectus
Easy process to dual list in London via passporting (when the bond prospectus is already approved in another EEA jurisdiction)
For existing notes to be admitted to trading on the regulated market of the London Stock Exchange, the issuer would have to undertake the following steps Action Comment Step 1 Obtain a passport from the existing EEA Competent Authority by submitting a Notification Request Form. The existing EEA Competent Authority has three working days to notify the UKLA that it has approved the base

Step 2 Submit the security to the UKLA Official List alongside the passport and make some small additions to the document, for example confirm the planned listing on London Stock Exchange in the prospectus. Step 3 Apply to the London Stock Exchange for admission to trading. This involves submitting a completed Form 11 and an electronic copy of the relevant prospectus.

Admission Process
For admission, the documents that we need are1:
Also as soon as possible in the admission process, it is necessary to arrange for the creation of the relevant trading codes:
ISIN/SEDOL ISINs are normally allocated by the country of domicile of the issuer. London Stock Exchange is then responsible for allocating a SEDOL code, which is a unique instrument identifier. Email the Pricing Supplement(s) to smfnewissues@lseg.com and allow 48 hours for these to be assigned. TIDM A Tradable Instrument Display Mnemonic (TIDM) is the three or four character identifier specific to London Stock Exchange. Issuers may request a specific TIDM, which will be issued, provided it is not already in use or reserved. Once reserved, these are held for a period of six months. Requests should be made to the Admissions Team by emailing the issuer name and the instrument name, making it clear that it is a TIDM request, to admissions@lseg.com
1Note that these documents can initially be in draft form (i.e Form 1 not signed and prospectus not yet approved – but it will need to be a workable document (i.e have most of the keyinformation included)). All final documentation needs to be with LSE Admissions by 4pm the day before admission.
