So I am flying to Sri Lanka next Saturday and have done to stupid thing of not checking my passport and it is set to expire in September. The entry requirements are 6 months after the day you arrive (180 days), I have 204 days has anybody flown with such a close margin? I rang the passport office and it sounded like a young person who had no more of an idea than me, he just said well I think you will be ok.

I am terrified of flying and get incredibly anxious around travel so this is adding to it. I cannot make a last minute dash to the passport office as I have no days off work prior to then.....help!!

You’re within the requirements so will be fine.

180 days means 180 days. They can't make you have more!
