Does anyone understand the EU stance on UK passport holders? I read a BBC article this morning where the EU state that UK passports valid for more that 10 years - happens when they renewed and credited with outstanding months - will not be recognised and the holder is turned away at passport control at airports.

So, what happens if you have an Australian passport and one British? Can you overlap them?

Does anyone know if this rule also applies to children's 5 year passport?

It would make sense for the rule not to apply on a child's 5 year passport, Cherrytree59, but who knows what they come up with? I might check it in a bit.

Wonderful result of Brexit!
