A deportation order (DO) remains in force unless revoked. It invalidates any previous leave granted and prohibits re-entry to the United Kingdom (UK) while it is in force. The existence of the DO is flagged on Home Office systems. This alerts Home Office officials in the event that the individual attempts to re-enter the UK.
