Where is the expiry date?

Also, I've moved house since I got the passport so should I have changed my address? and lastly if my passport has expired, how do I go about renewing and do I have to get new photo etc and how long before it expires do I have to renew it.

I've just been on the websites but can't seem to work it all out uh oh

Hiya Zell. It would be best to renew it to your new address. Go to the post office, get passport forms and in it as you fill it, there's an option for new passport or lost/stolen/renew passport. Also, the expiry date is at the back, under the issue date, same pasge as the photo. Hope this helps.

I do believe it's about £85, including the check, by a PO employee... The good news is, you don't have to have the new pics signed on the back!

Is that right no need for signatures now on the photos! wow that leaves me off the hook. I have signed lots of them in the last few years for nothing. I don't have a UK passport so all I know is what has been said already go to post office for form. I think you are well sorted now though. Very good advice there from genuine English folks. teddybear

There's you answer to your puzzle....Talk to Mr X in work this week (you're back on Tuesday...) and ask him. It'll give you both something else to talk about other than gadgets. And you can check out the ring marks or if he wears them (remember where they are sends out a message). So take note...typing <---you zell..

Just an idea....

I get your drift laugh I was going to ask him about my p60 that I haven't got. But, suppose I could mention the passport instead. Just hope he don't cotton on that I want it for ID cos I'm looking for another job uh oh 'cos he know's I'm not the travelling type laugh
