4.5 months left in child passport ? Renew

[Borderterrierpuppy]

Hi does anyone think I will have trouble checking in with BA to Turks and Caicos .
4.5 months left ( officially should have 6 months)

Definitely. I wouldn't take the risk if it officially has to be 6 months.

Why would you not renew it now? If you renew it in May and it runs out in September the new passport will have an expiry date of September 2021 because they add on the months left in the old passport.

Yes, renew it now. They'll add the extra months onto the new passport.

I would renew the passport now.

Why would you risk it? If it says 6 months and you don't then you could well be refused travel.

Thank you all will get on it today, we are trVelling in July but if I use check and send it should be ok :)

You absolutely need a new passport

don't bother with check and send just do the online application even my daughters first passport was only 2 weeks all renewals have been back in a week for us.

I would renew to be on the safe side!
