Nine-year-old gets past airport customs using toy passport

A couple were left stunned after their nine-year-old daughter, who looks nothing like fluffy fictional creature, managed to pass through Turkish customs officers - with a passport identifying her as a unicorn.

Emily Harris had taken the toy passport she had made for her pink toy unicorn, Lily, on holiday with her.

When the family passed through customs at Antalya airport to start their one-week holiday, flustered mum Nicky accidentally handed over the toy's passport instead of Emily's.

But they were stunned when they later realised their mistake - and discovered passport officials had even stamped the unicorn's passport, granting it access to the country.

You can’t make this stuff up you really couldn’t, if I made this story up and told it to someone they would rightly say that can’t be true you’re bu*******ing me, but amazingly this actually happened.

A customs official in Turkey looked at a fake passport with the photo of a unicorn on it and said yep you’re fine welcome to Turkey.


So if you’re thinking of taking a holiday and don’t want the usual hassle of diligent checks, then Turkey is the place for you.
