Countries where you can travel with a visa on an expired passport

I have an Indian Passport and a UK residency. I have got my re-issued as my old passport had no pages blank left. I just got my new passport now along with the old one. The right top of the cover page of the old passport has been cut and they have placed a stamp saying CANCELLED on it as well. I have couple of valid visas on my old (now canceled) passport. The valid visas are 1. My UK Residency Visa 2. Visa for Romania 3. Visa for South Africa 4. Schengen Visa from France. 5. Egyptian Visa 6. Turkish Visa. I have done a lot of search on google and I have got information that its fine to travel to US if you have a valid visa on a expired passport (mine says cancelled though) as long as you carry your new passport with you along with the old one and your name / DOB etc havent changed in the new passport. I would like to know if anyone have more information / experience about the same specially with the over listed countries. I travel very frequently for Business and this is very important for me and my job. I'll high appreciate any help.  Many Thanks Ramesh Sarda

Yes, in most countries you can travel but you must carry both passports.

As far as having a valid British visa in an expired passport, you can use it with your new passport as is the case in USA. But I don't have exact  knowledge for the other countries mentioned. This is I am telling you on my personal experience as when I was issued a 5 years Multiple entries British visa, I was also handed over an information page by the British High Commission in Pakistan which contained that particular information...  Wish you all the best... and I'll try to search that document in my record.. if I could send you as a proof... provided I could find it in a mess of documents... anyways you can reach me if you wish to at iemc.pk@gmail.com (Mr. Raja, Pakistani) take care n bye for now

 

 

Thank you Raja, I have been using my two passports and now i have travelled to multiple countries in Europe (Netherlands, France, Romania) and I didnt face any problem. I just need to carry both the passports with me.
