My passport is due to expire in May of this year.

I'm going to Belgium for a long weekend in January will the expiry date of my passport cause me any problems?

Somebody told me that I need at least 6 months on my passport to travel abroad but I didn't think it applied to EU countries.

Anyone know for sure?

I did ask the government passport office but they couldn't help me, they said I should contact the Belgium embassy! Crazy!

Thanks in advance.

 

Shouldn't do. I went to spain last year and my passport expired the day after i came back. Didn't realise till the bloke at the airport told me

Nearly shat myself. I miss heard him and thought he said it has expired

 

you'll be fine mate. the passport is still valid and your in an eu country.
my mate lost his passport when on holiday in magaluf, he got back to uk with a piece of paper with a conselate signature on it

 

should be ok but a lot of countries insist on 6 months validity. If u got the time i would change it anyhow as u will have to sooner or later.

 

I should be fine then. Thanks guys.

I would re-new it but I'm worried it wouldn't be back in time as we go in a couple of weeks.

I'll definitely do it when I'm back though.

Got a stag do in Magaluf in June!
