Is my passport valid for Europe?
Since Brexit, two separate rules trip up travellers. Enter your dates and we'll check both.
The two rules, explained
- It must have been issued less than 10 years before the day you enter.
- It must be valid for at least 3 months after the day you intend to leave.
Both must be true. If either fails, you can be refused boarding or entry — renew in good time.
Information, not advice — entry rules change and are decided by border authorities. Confirm with the UK Foreign Office before you travel. gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice.
