UK passport expiration

UK passport expiration - Crop unrecognizable person demonstrating British passport

I have a UK passport and live in the US with a US green card. My passport expires on May 30th. I'm planning to travel outside the US and be back on April 22nd.

Is it possible?



Best Answer

It is not clear whether you are asking about your ability to enter the foreign country you will be visiting, or your ability to enter the US.

For entry to the foreign country you will be visiting, that depends on the rules of that country, which you have not mentioned. Some countries may have requirements for a certain number of months of passport validity to visit.

For entry to the US, there is no length of passport validity required for an entering immigrant (there is a 6-month requirement for nonimmigrants with certain passports (not including the UK), but this doesn't apply to immigrants); and, furthermore, returning US permanent residents with a valid green card are not even required to have a passport at all to enter the US.
