Travel Information

Please ensure that your passport is valid for entry into your destination country and for your return to the UK, as it is important to be aware that passports must be valid for a minimum period beyond the time of your intended stay in the destination country.

If you are using a British passport to travel to the EU, your passport must be valid for at least 3 months from the date you intend to leave the EU, and your passport should also have been issued within the previous 10 years upon the date you arrive in the EU - This means that if your passport was issued more than 10 years ago, then you will need to renew it before you travel to the EU.

You can find further information about passport validity and check if you need to renew your passport on the UK government website here.

The best source of information for this is the Foreign Office advice on the UK government website, which is regularly updated and can be found here:  https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice

Following Brexit, the European Health Insurance Card (EHIC) is being phased out and replaced with the Global Health Insurance Card (GHIC). Despite the name, the GHIC is currently only valid within EU countries, which is the same as the EHIC. If you currently have an EHIC that is still valid, you can continue to use this, but when your EHIC expires you should apply for a new GHIC. Both cards entitle you to medical treatment in the EU. However, neither is a replacement for travel insurance and you should ensure you have appropriate insurance in place before you travel.
