Passport not 6 months old
Hello! I love looking around Fodors, you guys are all so helpful.
I got my passport on Mar 2, 2006 and I want to go to Singapore the first week of July 2006 and I read on one site that you have to have had your passport for 6 months. Is this true and if so do I have ANY options. I am trying to go see an old friend I haven't seen in over 6 years who is in the navy. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help me, I am so new to all of this! Thank you guys in advance for any help you can give me.

Relax, nothing to worry about!
You are probably reading where it says a Passport must have at least 6 months 'remaining' validity on it ! So if your passport is valid say for 5 years - after you've had it for 4.5 years 'then' time to renew it because many countries require at least 6 months 'remaining' on it.
Relax and look forward to your trip!

Travelers to the region should note that Singapore and some neighboring countries, particularly Indonesia, do not allow Americans to enter with fewer than six months of validity remaining on their passport under any circumstances.
