Lemongrass Posted May 15, 2022 Posted May 15, 2022 My ten year UK passport was issued 09/05/13, expires 09/11/23. What is the latest date i can leave Thailand for UK from BKK airport on this passport? Thanks. Quote
Lantern Posted May 15, 2022 Posted May 15, 2022 I think if you have less than six months on it you can't travel. Quote
Nickrock Posted May 15, 2022 Posted May 15, 2022 I think it's a lot less than that if your destination is to the country that it is issued from When my Mrs mum died she had about 2 months left on it nothing was said when we left nz for thailand Quote

I would say 8/11/23 ... but think the OP should send an email to U.K. immigration to make sure Quote

However they do warn airlines make their own rules and may refuse to carry you if your passport is nearing expiry. if you transit through other countries you may have problems if your passport is nearing expiry. Therefore they do suggest that having at least 6 months left before expiry should ensure problem free travel. Quote
galenkia Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 Better apply now as it'll probably take 6 months to get the passport back. 2 Quote
KWA Posted May 16, 2022 Posted May 16, 2022 You should aim to arrive in the UK on 9/11/23 at the latest. The EU rule about passports issued more than 10 years prior to date of entry not being valid doesn't affect you and immigration will let you in even on an expired passport. The reason for my advice is that airlines may refuse to carry you with an expired passport and will tell you to get a new one or an emergency or temporary passport. Quote
