Travel with almost expired passport

Hi, I am a permanent resident and want to travel to Kuwait for a week
in the end of February. I just looked at my passport to discover it
will expire in June. Will I have problems? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

In all probability you will not be allowed admission to Kuwait in February.
Most countries require a minimum of 6 months on unexpired time on the
passport. You need to do an expedited renewal of the passport ASAP.

Most countries (including Kuwait) require that your passport be valid for 6
months past your visit. Will they waive that requirement? Depends on how lucky
you feel.

Depending on what country's passport you are travelling under, there should be
plenty of time to get an expedited renewal.

As you are not Jewish, you should not have any trouble traveling to Arab
countries.

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.

You may want to visit the website of the Jordanian embassy about
renewing your passport. There are instructions in Arabic.

It would take a lot of time. I secured a visa for Kuwait and getting
there is not a problem. But my question now is that the passport I
have (Jordanian) will expire on June 2nd, 2008 and it is a non-machine
readable. My visit will be from February 6- 16 of next month. Will I
have a problem being admitted to the US? Thanks for the help. I heard
that the passport has to be machine-readable.

You are a permanent resident. You should have no problem.
