UK passport renewal and visa in old passport still valid?

Jul 23, 2015

Hello, my name is Robert Cottis,

I have a work permit in Vietnam, It expires on 25.9.2015.

Currently I am home in the UK and will return to Vietnam on 5.9.2015. (my company were planning on renewing my work permit for a second year when i arrive in vietnam)

Recently, I have renewed my passport as it will expire in March 2016.

Now I have 2 passports, my old passport (which has been clipped, and has the current valid work permit) and my new passport.



I am wondering if i can enter Vietnam using both passports, as my old passport contains my current visa? (the old passport and visa has not expired)

or

If I will need to apply for a new business visa here in the UK using my new passport.

Your reply is much appreciated,
Thank you

We are pleased to inform that as your case, you should get new visa for new passport  to avoid any problem in Vietnam. Then when you are in Vietnam, you can use new passport to get new work permit. It is more convenient for you.
