Travel to Australia with new passport (with visa in old passport)
I was granted a visa to Australia few months ago. I’d like to travel to Australia in few days. However, I’ve just renewed my passport and I don’t have enough time to inform them about my passport renewal. Can I travel to Australia by carrying both my old and my new passports?
