Hi - I have booked a trip to Morroco in two weeks time. I now realised that my passport is only valid for another 5 months, not six as required. Furthermore, other websites have stated the document only needs to be valid another 3 months. Will I be able to travel? @David, did you get an answer? Thanks

Hi - my daughter has booked a holiday in Morocco next week, but we have just realised that her UK passport expired in May - less than 6 months. How strict is the rule about six months validity?
