Check Your Passport's Validity

As the UK is no longer part of the European Union, most EU countries now require UK passports to be less than ten years old and still to be valid for six months at the time you are due to leave their country. Just so you know if you renewed your passport before the previous one expired ,any extra months which may have been added to your new passport expiry date making it valid for more than ten years might not count.

For example a passport with an issue date of 1 January 2012 and an expiry date of 31 October 2022 is not valid beyond 01 January 2022, ten years after its original issue date. Check the latest criteria and make sure your passport is valid for travel here https://www.gov.uk/check-a-passport-travel-europe
