Passport in old name!

[motherofdragons88]

Hi just wondering if anyone can tell me if I can use my passport that’s in my old name if I book my tickets using the same name (changed by deed poll) it’s the last thing I need to change.

You need to book any tickets using the name on your passport. I don't understand the changing name by deed poll bit at all. Have you changed your name but not on your passport?

Slightly different as not deed poll, but my passport is still in my maiden name as it was only a couple of years old when we got married. I just make sure all tickets are booked in my old name so they match.

Fine to use your passport so long as it's still in date and you book the tickets in the name on the passport. I had 4yrs left on my passport when I got married, so I've been travelling for 4yrs on my maiden name as I didn't want to waste the time left on it (you can only roll over 6 months worth of time on an old one).

Book tickets in name on passport.

Any visas involved?

Thank you! No visas involved

My passport still has about 5 years on it
