10 Common Travel Mistakes You Might Be Making

3. Traveling Too Close to Passport Expiration Date

It does not mean you are in the clear if your passport will expire a week or so after return flight. Note that many European countries require that your passport is valid for 3 months after your departure date, whereas some countries (like China and Russia) extend this period to 6 months. So make sure to renew your passport if it is about to expire.
