Re-evidencing of a Resident Return Visa

If a passport containing a valid resident return visa has expired, or been lost, stolen or damaged, the visa can be evidenced with another label in the holder’s new passport. An application charge applies for this service.

If a valid visa is an expired passport, it is possible to continue to use the visa until it expires, provided both the old and new passports are carried together when travelling to Australia.
