My 15 year old daughter is traveling on my passport we need to confirm the passport is valid I have been told my passport is not valid by the post office they say i need 6months remaining can you please confirm with the correct answer.
Thank you for your time
Steve Bennett.

Linda, I’m assuming you have a British passport. Here’s what the Home Office say about passport validity.

‘Some overseas countries have an immigration requirement for a passport to remain valid for a minimum period after entry to that country.
Holding a British passport does not exempt the holder from complying with these requirements. If your passport is in its final year of validity, you are advised to check the requirements of your destination country before you make your final travel plans. Any questions should be addressed to their consulate or embassy.’

With only two months left on your passport I’d call the Spanish Consulate (above on 0207 589 8989 ) and ask.

I have a ten years old daughter who’s spanish,we have moved to London nearly two years ago,she’s attending school.Would like to know if she needs to apply for a british residence or maybe passport(coul she have three passport as she already has a spanish and brazilian?),would it be necessary for her in the future when it comes to apply for university or seeking for jobs? we are living in London,i’m brazilian married to a british.
Thanks for your attention,
Linda Alves.

I would say that shouldn’t be a problem as its another EU country, although as a rule they say have at least six months on your passport when travlling abroad.
