    They arent rules. They are guidelines.  They arent going to get stopped at the airport because they dont live together 😅
  • The only guarantee is he won't be going anywhere without a passport.   So yes, he needs to apply and quickly.  Obviously the holiday may not go ahead anyway, but if it does he doesn't want to lose his money because he hasn't got a passport.   I just hope it is a straight forward renewal and not a first time application.

    Passport Gov site says not to apply unless its an emergency but what do you think should he just apply anyway. T

    Thanks for taking the time to reply. I am obviously aware they wont be the only two people travelling I was thinking more about if you cant be indoors with someone not from your household. BTW sarcasm doesn't suit you !!
