Is this new?

They are saying ignore the expiry date, use the start date and ten years from that date is the expiry?

I was always thought you could have those extra six months to renew early so you could go on holiday without your passport almost running out?

Mine started May 13 expires Aug 23, but I'm to assume expires may 2023, and allow extra three months at the end nonsense from May 2023?

It takes six months to get one at the moment doesn't it, what a mess?
