Do I need a new Passport?

[Galaxygirl1993]

Travelling 17th September to Florida and arriving back in England 3rd October this year.

Just checked Passport and mine is valid until 21st April 2021!

I know you need 6 months on the Passport, will this be fine or do I need a new one?!

Short answer is no!
Six months on the passport is also not required.

As disneypars says you do not need any grace on a passport to visit USA if issued by any of these countries.

Posted this link dozens of times - hope it reassures you

I usually qualify my response these days to say "if flying direct"

If EU demand grace after 1st Feb I don't know how it works if flying indirect for example and whatever Schengen means I'm totally confused. But we only ever fly direct

That is absolutely incorrect. Have you not bothered to read the official document that I just posted.

For UK passports it is not..

For certain nationalities, the passport or other travel document must be valid for at least six months beyond the proposed stay in the United States. The six-month requirement does not apply to United Kingdom passports.
This is quote from here uk.usembassy.gov/

My partner only had 4 months on his passport in November and no one batted an eyelid
