2) Will they invalidate the valid visas in old passport?
3) Simply, Can I use old passport?
please suugest!



Best Answer

  1. No, not while the visa remains valid

  2. No

  3. Yes, together with your new one. You must present both at immigration, the old one open at the visa page, and the new one open at the main ID page
