Entries into Spain, Malta and probably Greece.
A blue watermarked paper was introduced to make alteration and forgery more difficult. The number of pages was reduced from 32 to 30, and the holder's eye colour and the maiden name of a married woman were removed.

N O T E S
1 A passport is valid for ten years, unless otherwise stated. If issued to a child under sixteen years of age it is normally valid for five years in the first instance but may be extended for a further five years without further charge. A passport which is ten years old or has no further space for visas must be replaced by a new one.
2 The possession of a passport does not exempt the holder from compliance with any immigration regulations in force in any territory or from the necessity of obtaining a visa or permit where required. It should be noted in this connexion that the majority of British territories overseas have immigration restrictions applicable to British subjects as well as aliens.
3 A passport including particulars of the holder’s wife is not available for the wife’s use when she is travelling alone.
4 Children who have reached the age of sixteen years require separate passports.
5 Registration Overseas British nationals resident overseas who are entitled to the protection of the United Kingdom' authorities should contact the nearest British High Commission, Embassy or Consulate to enquire about any arrangements for registration of their names and addresses. Failure to do so may in an emergency result in difficulty or delay in according them assistance and protection.
6 Dual Nationality United Kingdom nationals who are also nationals of another country cannot be protected by Her Majesty’s representatives against the authorities of that country. If, under the law of that country, they are liable for any obligation (such as military service), the fact that they are United Kingdom nationals does not exempt them from it. A person having some connexion with a Commonwealth or foreign country (eg by birth, by descent through either parent, by marriage or by residence) may be a national of that country, in addition to being a national of the United Kingdom. Acquisition of British nationality by a foreigner does not necessarily cause the loss of nationality of origin.
7 Caution This passport remains the property of Her Majesty’s Government in the United Kingdom and may be withdrawn at any time. It should not be tampered with or passed to an unauthorised person. Any case of loss or destruction should be immediately reported to the local police and to the nearest British passport issuing authority (eg Passport Office, London; British Consulate; British High Commission or Colonial authority); only after exhaustive enquiries can a replacement be issued in such circumstances. The passport of a deceased person should be submitted for cancellation to the nearest such passport authority: it will be returned on request.
