The IOR is deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II after a lifetime of duty and service. Our thoughts and prayers are with the Royal Family at this time.

The funeral of HM Queen Elizabeth II is to be held on 19th September and will be treated as a Bank Holiday. As a result, our office will remain shut on that day to allow us all to pay our respects to Her Majesty and to commemorate her reign.
