Can i travel by Eurotunnel to the Uk without a passport?
Discussion
customs at calais are british, those at dover are french. the guys at calais told me that if you turned up at the french side without a passport they would see sense and just let you through.
its getting back out thats tricky, but still possible. i organised a trip to lux a year or so ago and one of our party had no passport. the ferry company wanted a passport but said this was company policy, not the law, and they'd agree to carry us if i got agreement from customs/embassies etc. both french and uk customs were fine using a driving license as ID, as were french/lux embassies. the belgiums had a problem with it though.
we didn't go in the end as the dippy non-passport owner also had no driving licence so no form of official photo ID whatsoever!
