You'll need a full British passport that's valid for at least 6 months beyond your return date (not counting any extra months beyond the 10-year issue date).
✅Quick checklist:
- Is it a full passport? (Not an emergency travel document)
- Does it have at least 6 months left when you get back?
- Is it in date based on the 10-year rule?
⚠️It's your responsibility to make sure your passport's good to go, so dig it out now and check the dates - much easier than discovering an issue a few weeks before you sail!
