When does it expire?
An expiry date matters months in advance. Some countries refuse entry with under six months left on a passport, and a lapsed insurance policy is not a small problem.
What is coming up
Every date we track that falls inside your window β so a birthday, a bank holiday or a deadline never arrives as a surprise.
Free to use β Pro is for keeping it
This tool, like every other one here, is free and needs no account. A free account keeps three setups and three email alerts. Pro takes the ads off every site we run and lifts that to 200 setups and 50 alerts, adds a public page for any result and lets you embed the tool without our badge.

How this works
How much validity is usually required
An expiry date is rarely the deadline to act.
| Document | Common requirement | Act by |
|---|---|---|
| Passport, many destinations | 6 months validity beyond travel | 9 months before expiry |
| Passport, EU to EU travel | Valid on the day | 1 month before expiry |
| Driving licence photocard | Valid on the day | 1 month before expiry |
| Vehicle insurance | Continuous cover required | 14 days before renewal |
| Domain name | Expires immediately | 30 days before expiry |
Requirements differ by country and change: check the official source for your destination before you travel.
Frequently asked questions
How far ahead should I be warned about a passport?
Many countries require six months of validity beyond your travel dates, and some require a blank page as well. Treat the printed expiry as the last possible date, not the deadline to act.
Can I track several at once?
Yes β save one for each and they all sit in your account, on any device you sign in on.
