1 small point - my passport runs out in Jan 08. Given that border control usually insist on a 6 month grace period, (which is July) do i need to renew before or can i do it after (and get a full 10 years out of my 10 year passport???)
1) A rhetorical question
2) A reminder to myself,
3) A reminder for anyone else who hasn't checked there's in a while!
It was only when posting my comment, that it suddenly popped into my head (and obviously the passport office wasn't open at 21:30!)
Anyway, rang them up a couple of days later, and there wasn't any easy answer - i would of had to have phoned up the embassy of each country we drive through to find out what there rules were (even though I only presented my passport in Switzerland & France last year).
There is no internet page on the UKPI website that details the requirements of every country, and no european-wide agreement between European countries
So i've renewed it - you can renew it up to 9 months before it expires, and you get those months added onto your next one - so if you had 6 months left, your new one is valid for 10 years & 6 months.
Still not too happy about the price though!
