24. Passport Advice

PASSPORT NOTES AND ADVICE
The United Kingdom is no longer a part of the European Union (EU) therefore you are required to carry a full British 10-year passport (or five-year child passport if you are under 16 and not on a parent's passport) every time you travel to Europe. This includes day trips and travel by Eurostar and you must have your passport for checking at relevant border / immigration control when you leave & return to the UK.

When does your passport expire?
You may need to renew your British passport earlier if you’re travelling to an EU country, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway or Switzerland.

On the day you travel, you’ll need your passport to both:
- have at least 6 months validity left
- be less than 10 years old (even if it has 6 months or more left)
These rules do not apply to travel to Ireland. You can continue to use your passport as long as it’s valid for the length of your stay.

Useful Advice
Before you leave, make sure that:
* you have filled in details of your next of kin on the last page of your passport
* you have noted down your passport number and its date of issue and have put these details in a safe place, separate from your passport
* you have made a photocopy of your passport details page (usually inside the back cover) and left it with a friend
* you take one other form of photo ID with you
* any children who are travelling on your passport will still be under 16 by the end of your journey (if not, they will need their own passport - a child passport if they are under 16 at the start of their travels and an adult one if they will be 16 before they set out).
