If you have a passport look at it and check validity.
There's no other way or portal to check. Not using your passport for a long time is no issue, as long as it stays valid.
What would you actually check ???

Thanks for your quick response.
I have checked his passport it's valid for good years.
He read on Internet HMPO can cancel your passport in error electronically he has health condition gets worried for those kinds of things because I used this website few times i thought to check here if any online portal available to verify like you check driving licence etc.
I will tell him he doesn't need to worry and plan his travel peacefully.
Thanks again

I am not sure which link he used to search that information but he said it was on government website. Where he read it.
My question is he doesn't need to worry about it?
Thanks again

No need to worry, if the expiry date on his passport is still far in the future. I am not aware of any such service for checking a document is valid.
