Great passport holder
I really like this family passport holder. This is the second one I buy since we travel with our kids internationally at least once a year. It’s a good way to keep document organized and on the ready. I like that it has space for four passport books, plus ID’s and cards. It also has a pen holder. And a couple zippered pockets. We also travel with our dogs and this case kept all our family’s and pet’s documents in one convenient place. It’s also easy to use. The zipper is easy to open and close. And I like that the strap is not on the zipper. The last holder I got has the strap on the zipper and when you opened it things could fall off if you weren’t super careful. I like that little pocket on the front. It’s convenient to keep boarding passes handy. The quality is great too. I didn’t even read about it being fire proof but that just makes it nicer. And it’s pretty easy to keep clean because the material can be just wiped down and doesn’t stain easily. We just keep or passports there and put them on our document area at home. So they’re ready to go whenever we need. Overall a great product small families traveling.

Great passport storage for a family of 4!
This passport travel wristlet was perfect of or family of 4 to use while traveling. It was large enough to keep all of of our passports inside and also travel documents. I love that the material is fire resistant, but the material is slightly tacky b/c of that. Not a big deal for me, but something worth noting. I don't mind the material b/c it gives me peace of mind when storing my passports inside that if there is a fire, our passports will be protected. Overall, I think this is a great option to safely store and travel with your passports!

This will be great at the airport for international flights
Wow. This has pockets for four passports; six pockets that will easily hold 18 credit, debit, insurance, membership, library... cards; photo id slot, mesh pocket for monetary notes or some change; a large inside zippered area perhaps for personal items; another full length pocket behind the credit cards for paperwork and a slot on the front fo boarding passes, the passport, phone, whatever. This is going to be so handy for an international trip, keeping passport(s), boarding passes, itinerary, phone and more all together and very easily accessible. With all these card slots, I may start carrying it on a daily basis with my phone in it. I've never before found a wallet that could hold all the cards I'd like to be carrying every day; but have to swipe out depending the day's destination; because there's no room for them all in a phone or standard wallet. The surface feels rubberized with a good grip. It's light weight and the detachable strap is definitely appreciated. What a help this will be to stay organized. Being fireproof and RFID blocking are excellent bonuses.
