Passports? Need help please!

[ruthie]

Hi
We usually go to WDW but are going to DLP in 4 weeks.
Just checked the passports and the kids ones expire in July. Do they need to have 6 months left to run when you return home like you do for America or are we okay to use these with 5 months left?

Thanks

I remember someone asking this a few months ago and they had 3 months left. The general consensus was that you didn't need 6 months - it just needed to be valid for the duration of the trip. You could check with the airline to be absolutely certain.

We flew about 3 weeks ago, and my friends was about to run out this March, and she had no problems with easyjet. I think you are fine, I think its just USA where you need 6 months

Just found this. British passport holders can travel to France until the expiry date of their passport.

It was me that asked a few months ago and we discovered that you don't actually need a passport for entering France, it's to prove that you can return to the UK You will be fine though, we went at the start of the month and the kids run out in March As long as it's valid when you travel, it wont be a problem.

As long as your passports are valid on your return you are definitely fine to travel to France. It is only the US that has the six month rule. Enjoy DLRP!
