Packing list for travelling abroad
Most of this list is paperwork. The passport is marked must-have, so PackPerfect keeps flagging it until it is packed. Passports made the top ten in Just Cover's look at what people forget (opens in a new tab).
Entry rules depend on your passport and where you are going, and some countries also check how long your passport has left before it expires. Check both in your government's travel advice, such as GOV.UK's (opens in a new tab) for British passports, before you travel.
