NO matter what happens regarding the Brexit deal this week, it’s probably worth checking your passport if you’re hoping to travel later this year.
While there is still a lot of uncertainty regarding Brexit, the one thing that is clear is that the rules for passports will change if we leave the EU without a deal.
UK passport holders will need a minimum of six months left on their travel documents in order to visit much of Europe.
To clarify matters, the government has launched a new tool to help British travellers find out if their passport will be valid after March 29 – the day the UK officially leaves the EU.
The ‘Check a Passport’ service online needs the user’s travel destination, date of travel, date of birth, date the passport was issued and the date it expires and will then confirm whether the passport will be valid for the journey in question.
