How to extend the passport

03.04.2021

Owners of passports repeatedly thought that it would be necessary to extend the international document. After all, this document is necessarily required when crossing the border of the Russian Federation and another state (there are exceptions). There are many reasons why the extension of the passport is required.

Often, an existing visa remains with the extension of the passport of a passport. If you pass the extension procedure - a new passport is issued, with clean pages, and the old one becomes invalid. To save a visa, you need to write a statement with a request to give an old passport. Thus, the visa remains valid, but the old document has no legal force.

Who needs it?

To pour the action of the document, you can rely on one of the following reasons:

The most common - the pages ended. If you like to travel, you will soon need to extend your passport. After all, at the borders of foreign states, when they put a stamp, do not look at the number of remaining sheets, and can put it anywhere, even in the middle page.
Another equally important reason - the term of the passport has ended. If you have been issued an international document of an old sample, it needs to be renewed every 5 years, in the case of a new option - every 10 years.

In fact, the process of extending a foreign passport is almost no different from receiving a new document.

After all, you cannot independently fix the validity of the document or report pages. If necessary, the old instance changes to a new one. In essence, it is necessary to re-submit documents to extend the passport. But there are cases when it is not prolonged.
