Possible Passport damage! Please advice!

Hi there.

I am due to go on holiday with my fianc! on the 15th May which is 23 days from now. I went to get my passport out my wardrobe the other day so I could check in our flights and realised the pages look quite crinkled, I didn't know how this would of happened as it's a brand new passport which I had replaced last year as I When I went to turkey. It's never been somewhere it could of been exposed to water so I'm guessing it has got damp but my fianc!s passport was fine.

I am flying from gatwick to dalaman with easyjet.

The photo and information page is fine. My stamps are fine from the last time I went. The only thing that concerns me is the fact the pages are crinkled and the 4 water mark dots on the photo page are very visible


On the photo that is the opposite side of the photo page, so the other side is where my photo is. If that makes sense.

Thanks in advance for any opinions.

Kind regards.

Joe.

    Sounds silly but the water spots on the photo page...you are sure those aren't the security spots? When I first got mine I thought someone had dropped grease from chips or something onto the passport...

    It's not very clear what's meant by the spots and crinkles, but if the photo and info page are ok, the chip and RFID circuit not damaged and no other defacement then it should be perfectly useable. Keep it flat under some books or weights to perhaps straighten out your crinkles
