Answer 1

Yes

Answer 2

you need six months left on your passport when u enter the country & obviously must leave before it expires.

Answer 3

its ok as long as you have 3 months left when you return

Answer 4

Yes this won't cause a problem, however, most countries require 6 months minimum validity on a passport in order to gain entry so you'll need to renew it upon your return.

Answer 5

Yes.  You need 6  months on your passport to travel to travel between the EU.  As long as you have a return ticket you should be fine.  Have a lovely holiday.  Lizzy x

Answer 6

Depends when you're going.

If you're come back before March '09 then yes you can.

If not you need a new passport.

Answer 7

As an EU citizen travelling between EU countries the only requirement is that the passport remains valid up till and including the date you return to the UK.

Answer 8

Yes, you're fine as long as you return before the passport expires. The "have to have six months on the passport when you travel" comments are total nonsense when EU citizens are travelling between EU countries - the only thing that matters is that the passport is valid on the day that you are travelling.

Answer 9

in most cases yes but some times the airlines require you to have atleast 1 year and some require on for as long as you are going to go
