Before You Travel

Health Information

You will find information about the health requirements for the countries featured on this website on the relevant destination page. We also advise that you check with your GP, practice nurse or a travel health clinic on the recommended practice for the specific country you are visiting. Further information can be found on the following site https://travelaware.campaign.gov.uk

Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO) advice

The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office can provide you with up-to-date travel advice to help you make informed decisions about travelling abroad. Please visit https://travelaware.campaign.gov.uk/ for further information.

Banned Airlines

The EU publishes a list of airlines that are subject to an operating ban within the European Community. To view it, go to www.europa.eu and select Travel then Passenger Rights.

Passports and visas

For passports, different countries have different rules on how long passports must be valid for. Since the UK left the EU, clients travelling to Europe must have passports issued less than 10 years before the date they enter the destination country and valid for at least 3 months after the day they plan to leave.
