Passport for School Trip
10 Answers
Hi. My daughter is going on a one day trip to Belgium with her school to visit the battlefields. Do I need to buy a passport for her or does any other type of identification suffice? She is 14. Thankyou for your help.

Children under 18 can go on school trips without a passport as long as the school arranges a group passport which will include the names of the children travelling. This has to be arranged at least four weeks ahead of the travel and is only possible if there are more than a certain number in the group. If children hold their own passport then they will not be included on the group passport.
Check wiith the school.
