London, UK - British travellers have been sent an urgent reminder by HM Passport Office (HMPO) to double-check their passports before heading abroad. The official alert highlights the importance of ensuring passports meet validity rules for different countries - a warning that U.K.ABROAD says many travellers leave too late.

HMPO’s message directed travellers to check the Foreign Travel Advice page for entry requirements. Popular European destinations such as Spain and France require passports to have been issued within the last 10 years and remain valid for at least 3 months after departure from the Schengen area. Other countries, such as Canada, insist on validity covering the entire stay, while many nations require six months’ validity on entry.

The UK Government has stressed:

“Do not book travel until you have a valid passport - your new passport will not have the same number as your old one.”

Why Renew Early with U.K.ABROAD

Every year, thousands of applications are delayed because travellers leave their passport renewal too late or are caught out by country-specific rules. U.K.ABROAD has supported British citizens worldwide since 2008, ensuring renewals and applications are handled smoothly, without unnecessary setbacks.

Madeleine, Applications Manager at U.K.ABROAD, explains:

“We see so many clients who assumed their passports were valid, only to discover too late that they didn’t meet the requirements of their destination. Renewing early avoids the risk of missed holidays, extra costs, and stressful last-minute changes.”
