If you are a national of EU countries with national identity card (that excludes UK and Ireland), you can travel on that as well. You won't be allowed to board the train/ferry/Eurotunnel shuttle/plane without acceptable document. Alec

It's only because they don't have another one that they end up needing a passport... Self-inflicted I guess.

Can a French national travel to UK with a driving licence (with photo) but no carte disentitle? Can a German travel to Austria/Italy with driving licence but no Personalises (regardless of no border control)? Alec

No. (by the way it is a Carte d'Identite (+ accent)) Can a German travel to Austria/Italy with driving licence but no Personalises (regardless of no border control)? Personalausweis. No, officially he can't. Sjoerd

A driver's license, for instance, is perfectly valid as ID at my local bank or post office, but when I go to Belgium (or any other EU country) I need a ID card or passport. So "any" picture ID is not good enough to cross a border within Europe. You need the "official" national ID card or a passport. Sjoerd

I cannot think of a single Airline or Ferry co that will let a UK citizen travel abroad without a valid UK passport.
