UK girl reaches Turkey using toy passport

Issue No. 14 | July 16-31, 2013

A nine-year-old British schoolgirl managed to get past Turkish customs officers with a toy passport identifying her as a unicorn. Emily Harris, from Cwmbran, South Wales, had taken the toy passport she had made for her pink toy unicorn on holiday with her. When the family passed through customs at Antalya airport to start their one-week holiday, Emily’s mom Nicky accidentally handed over the toy’s passport instead of her daughter’s, ‘The Daily Express’ reported.

However, the parents were shocked when they later realised their mistake and discovered passport officials had even stamped the unicorn’s passport. The passport is quite obviously a fake, Nicky said, pointing out that it is not only a completely different size and shape to the official document, but that it also has gold teddy bears on the front.
