Ok I need help...

My fiancé, who is currently in Malaysia, is planning to go back to the Philippines by Oct.

His passport expires in December 2013, but he already has a new one.

the problem is that his valid visa (expires November 2013) is on the old passport.

Now... is it safe for him to fly back to the Philippines by showing the OLD and NEW passports together?

Or...

Does he have to fill up some forms to transfer the visa to the new passport or apply for a new malaysian visa in order to get out of malaysia.

this is so frustrating because i want him to go home at least by the 2nd week of Oct but it feels like this may cause a delay.

I know for US Citizens its not so hard.

Ugh..

Please help.. I'm so worried about his situation because I'm all the way here on Guam and the most I can do is research for him because he doesn't know about these immigration things.

omg im in panic mode.

Really thats all?

I was reading several different sites and they were saying about applying "transfer of visa" and another site said that as long as the passport is not valid anymore, then the visa is not valid as well.

ugh this is really frustrating.. but i hope you're both right!

thanks so much :)

Really..., this is all that you will need! Try to keep in mind that both passports are legal documents/papers. Since a new one has already been issued the old one will be needed, even though it has or will expire soon, to show the presence of a still "valid" visa. Best of luck!
