Misleading passport expiry date
A heads up. My passport shows an expiry date of July 22. I need to travel back to the uk for a funeral and thought I was ok as there is more than six months until it expires. However, a Facebook post prompted me to check this out. On checking the uk yougov site it turns out it actually expired back in April ! Can’t fast track an overseas passport so had to apply for an emergency travel document from the British consulate in Alicante. After brexit the passport expiry date is based on the date of issue, added on months do not count. Mine was issued in Oct 2011. Brexit. The gift that keeps on giving. At least I’ll get a blue one.
