Post-Brexit passport rules could see millions of Britons denied entry to EuropeMillions of British holidaymakers could be denied entry into European countries in the new year, if their passports are set to expire within six months.This means any British person entering the Continent on January 1 with an expiry date sooner than July 2021 could be turned away, under new rules coming into force when the Brexit transition period is over.The Passport Office turnaround time is approximately three weeks for online applications, according to the Home Office. This means that those hoping to travel in early 2021 with an expiring passport will need to renew it now.After the end of the Brexit transition process, European Health Insurance (EHIC) cards will no longer be valid and driving rules will likely change for British holidaymakers.
