If you don’t protect your passport well when traveling to study abroad, you may be refused entry.

Traveling is not as simple as "buying a ticket and leaving". You must check your passport carefully to ensure that the journey can proceed smoothly.

In addition to being unable to board the plane or being refused entry due to expired passports, if your passport has these four conditions, you will also be refused boarding by the airport ground staff in minutes, even if you succeed Once you get on the plane and arrive at your destination, you will be rejected by customs and the original plane will be sent back.

1. Damage

A foreign newlywed couple planned to go to Greece for their honeymoon. The girls were refused boarding by American Airlines ground staff because their passports were "excessively damaged." An expensive trip was ruined. Later, an airline spokesperson expressed support for the ground staff's actions, pointing out that the person's passport photo was obviously soaked in water at the time, and it was not allowed to leave the country with damaged government documents.

2. Leave no blank pages

Travel experts travel a lot in a year, so don’t think that the last page of your passport is fine. Since many major countries require a visa on arrival, you should keep it. At least 2 blank pages. Some countries, such as Russia and Greenland, require at least 4 blank pages.

3. The passport is valid for less than 6 months

Many people should know that when going abroad, you must hold a passport with at least 6 months of validity. Except for Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania, Cyprus, and the United Kingdom, which require passports to be valid for at least 3 months, the remaining 26 European countries all require 6 months. Otherwise, you will be refused boarding by customs and even the crew.

Earlier, some Japanese officials said that there is still a chance to enter the country if the passport is valid for less than 3 months, but the risk of being rejected is always high, so it is better not to try casually.

4. Incorrect personal characteristics and data

If your appearance has been "adjusted" or you have successfully lost weight and there is a big difference between the real person and the ID photo, please update the photo. Before, there was a chance of being intercepted upon entry.
