Have you ever had travel issues because of the 6 month passport validity rule in some countries? Have you ever traveled with less than 3 months on your passport? Share your story!

Super helpful video. I have been searching the web and just could not find clear information regarding passport validity in EU. thanks so much!

Very interesting and informative video. I personally think these 3 or 5 month validity passport rules are frankly very ridiculous. I very recently was travelling from the UK to Germany and was denied from checking in at airport because according to the airline staff at the airport, my passport had less than 3 months left on it (my passport had a little over 2 months left on it) and I was only travelling from the UK to Germany for 3 days ie going on Friday and coming back on Sunday, so why wouldn't u be allowed to travel. These rules are pretty ridiculous and pointless because my ticket clearly shows that I was only going for a very short trip and on return, my passport was still valid for at least two months, so even if for one reason or another, something happened in Germany and I couldn't come back to the UK, l still had a little over 2 months left on my passport. These passport rule are frankly very ridiculous. In fact, what these rules mean now is that, most passports which have 3 or 6 months left on them are totally useless, because one cannot travel with them. My question is that what is the point of a passport if it cannot be used when it has 3 or 6 months left depending on the country.

Can you make a video regarding getting a tourist visa for Australia, as well as what’s going to be needed to travel anywhere in the Schengen region beginning in 2021?

[WestSeaSpirit]

So I can travel the moment I get my passport? 🤔 I was thinking I have to wait 6 months to travel! 😅

hi, you are right, 6 month validity must be to travel abroad from your home country, but what about to come back to your home country, we can come back to our home country, when two days left to get our passport expired ....

I live in Brazil but I am a US citizen and my passport expires in November. Should I wait here until the US consulate reopens to renew or should I fly to the US to renew there (but be stuck for an indeterminate amount of time)?

Hello, I really appreciate this video you broke things down so well. Based on what you stated I think I should be fine and can use the passport I have. I would be traveling to Spain on May 24th, 2022, and will be staying abroad for about 3 weeks. I am thinking of going to Morroco as well. My passport expires on November 19th, 2022. What would you advise me to do?

Hello Maneesha,
I travel 08/09/2021 to Spain from Miami and return 08/23/2021. My wife and I have plenty of time left on our passports, but my kids passports are set to expire 11/01/2021. Do you think I will have issues?

Hi @maneeshamukhi would a person be allowed to enter the UK if they have a valid BRP but their passport is valid for less than 6 months

[sadiqua]

Hi! I just learned of this and my US passport expires July 12th, I travel to Johannesburg March 14th and am having trouble getting an appointment in NY to get an expedited renewal passport done in time. I tried calling the airline I’m flying from but they have a 2hour wait time. (Delta) what do you recommend? I keep hearing they won’t let me in if I just show up to the Hudson ave. Passport office. Trying not to panic
