Conclusion
Collecting abroad, it should be carefully examined by all the conditions for entry into the right country. Legislation is often changing. It is advisable to track changes in migration rules to save yourself from unpleasant surprises.
If you are thinking about the journey, it is useful to check the term of the passport. And it's not just the dates that you choose to leave. Sometimes there are restrictions when submitting securities for a visa. For example, to visit Thailand it is necessary that the passport is valid for half a year.
There are rules that act when changing the names, requirements for the state of the document - they need clean pages for marks, there should be no corrections and blots. If the old passport is no longer valid, it's time to think about getting a new one. It is better to do it in advance, before the occurrence of the vacation season. It is important to know how many years a passport is issued. Decide whether you want to make a biometric passport or ordinary.
In 2020, two types of passports are issued in Russia:
- Old sample, valid for five years. They are issued in 30 days, possibly urgent manufacturer. Such documents are issued to both adults and children. It was stated that gradually the countries of Europe will switch to biometric identity cards, but there is no discrimination in embassies for those citizens who pass on a visual passport.
- Biometric, new sample, which contain encoded information about the owner in the form of microchip. In these passports, 42 pages instead of 36, the photo is black and white and is done directly in the Passport and Visa Service. The term of the passport of the new sample is 10 years.
Before applying for registration, think about how much you have to travel.
If you often go to business trips, cross the border, the document may become invalid earlier than the validity period will end. You simply do not have enough pages to set the marks of the border service.
Many embassies prefer to stick a sticker with a visa to a whole reversal, that is, there are two passport pages at once. Therefore, for active travelers, there is no particular sense to issue a biometric document and overpay - it will still have to change earlier than ten years.
Check the timing, sheets of page
How to check how much passport is valid? Look at the first page. Below, you will see a row where two dates are indicated. This is the date of issuing a document and the end of its action.
Do not forget that to visit many countries it is required that the passport accepted three, and then six months after the end of the journey. This is due to the fact that the tourist is allowed to be in the country after crossing the border during this period. Of course, the passport must be valid for the entire stay abroad. Therefore, it is sometimes worth thinking about replacing the document even if it is formally valid.
Be sure to carefully overflow the page of the passport. Make sure there are pages suitable for stamping and boundary service stamps for sticking a visa sticker. If at the last moment it will be found that there is no free space, the journey will not take place.
When it is worth thinking about the replacement of the passport
There are several reasons for registration of a new sample:
- End of validity.
- Defects that have arisen during use are water heights, torn pages, extraneous entries, and the like.
- Lack of free pages.
- After changing the surname as a result of marriage.
If at the first three cases, the replacement is necessary, marriage does not entail the need to urgently change the passport. Such options for the development of events are possible.
- You leave the former lasting. In this case, foreign, and the Russian passport acts as before, only the stamp on the conclusion of marriage is put.
- When changing the surname, you must issue a new internal passport within thirty days. At the same time, the immediate replacement of the passport is not required. If you are going to rest in visa-free countryYou are traveling only on a foreign passport under the former surname.
- If you have changed the surname and want to visit Europe, for example, or another country, where in the list of necessary papers to obtain a visa there is a copy of the internal passport, both documents will be changed. The only opportunity to get around this ban and go to the wedding trip - to place a visa in advance, before changing the name. In this case, only an old passport with a visa will be needed to cross the border.
What to do if the validity period is over
If the term of the passport is expired, it will have to reinstance and collect all references. No benefits for those who have previously had such a document do not exist. Everything happens to general grounds. You can apply to in electronic format through the portal of public services.
It is well known that the embassies of some countries will not give a visa to the traveler if the term of its passport will soon expire. So if you are going abroad, it makes sense to get in advance new document. If you do not have the opportunity or desire to do this, it is worth at least checking the action of a passport for different countries. We will tell you where you can go, even if your document will lose the relevance in the days.
