- My visa is still valid but the passport has expired. I now have a new passport. Do I have to apply for a new visa or can I still use the one on my old passport?
Please ensure you complete and submit Form 929 – “Change of address and/or passport details”. Please either:
a) Scan the biodata page from your old and new passport, together with a scanned image of the visa label, and email scanned copy of Form 929 to immigration.manila@dfat.gov.au
b) Submit your old and new passport with completed Form 929 to our service delivery partner (with ample time before your intended travel) and your new passport will be returned with a new visa label if necessary.
It is not necessary for you to have a copy of your old valid visa label in your new passport, as long as Form 929 has been completed and submitted with evidence of your old and new passport. This allows us to update our electronic record and ensure airlines are aware that your new passport is valid for travel to Australia.
