Passport update - French Trip
29 Mar 2023
Please find below info recieved from the lady who is origanising the french trip.
Bonjour,
Despite the official government website stating that only 3 months validity is necessary on passports for travel to France, there is some confusion and the travel company are recommending 6 months (current advice seems to be somewhat contradictory).
We are therefore requesting that you ensure that your child’s passport has a minimum of 6 months validity from the date we return (29 June) and was issued less then 5 years ago (some older passports had extra months and this is no longer allowed).
If you need to renew the passport, please do it as soon as possible as there may be significant delays due to strikes.
Apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Staff - need to have passport with 6 months validity also and issued within the last 10 years.
Many thanks
Helen Heap
