Spring Break travel is here — and this is when many travelers realize their passport isn’t ready.
The 6-Month Validity Rule
Many countries require your passport to be valid for at least six months beyond your travel dates. If your passport expires in May and you’re traveling in March, you could be denied boarding.
Child Passports Expire Faster
Children under 16 receive passports valid for only five years. Parents often overlook this detail until it’s too late.
Damaged Passport Problems
Airlines may refuse boarding if your passport shows:
- Water damage
- Torn pages
- Missing information
- Detached cover
Can You Expedite a Passport?
In many cases, yes. If you have urgent travel plans, expedited passport services may help you meet your deadline.
