Can someone help with passport and spain

[amonthtogo]

I am travelling to Spain next week and suddenly thought about my passport. Passport was issued 7 august 2013,
expires 25 March 2024. I know the 10 year expiry makes that expire 7 august 2023 but do need an extra 3 months on top of that. I feel sick that I’ve just realised and could ruin our holiday.

eh? it's 2022 right now not 2023?

You need six months spare, so you are fine?

You're fine.
I'd send off for a new one after the summer rush.

Apparently you now only get 10 years regardless of expiry so my expiry will be 7 august 2023 but do I need 3 months on that? I’m confused

This is 2022.

Well it doesn’t matter does it because you’ve got almost 12 months

OP your passport expires on 7 august 2023. It is currently august 2022. The most additional any country needs on your passport is six months. So you are totally fine.

Thank you. I had just read a story in local
newspaper about a family being turned away and I had a panic

Have a lovely holiday. 🙂

@HinchcliffeandMurgatroyd thank you 😊

Just to clarify. Its expiry is printed as Aug 2023

@MorePassportWoes
It is printed as expiry 24 Mar 24 but as it was issued 7 Aug 13 I only have 10 years from then apparently it’s a new rule since Brexit

10 years from Aug 2013 is Aug 2023. You need 3 months validity. So can travel up to May 2023.

It is August 2022 now, so can use it for another 9 months.

This has got to be a wind up?

Why, sometimes you just need reassurance, the fear of being turned away at the gate is strong! Plus the 10 year brexit rule catches people out.

Apologies OP you did write all that I was just having a comprehension fail. Yes so you are completely fine, passport actually expires 07.08.23 .
