British Islands is a legal term that is not in general usage. It is not to be confused with the term British Isles.
The phrase "British Islands - Bailiwick of Jersey" is used, for example, on Jersey passports, replacing "United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" on the largely identical UK passport. (Both bear the inscription " European Union", although Jersey is in the customs union rather than the EU proper.)
