Fantastic, I used to love the days of the passport stamp, I always used to think it was the best souvenir you could get.

The only ones I ever get nowadays are on holiday.

Are you guys allowed to keep old passport when you get a new one?

Hi HomoFaber,

I’m not sure whether the rules have changed, but when the passport in my pic above expired, I was able to request its return. The authorities then cut the very top right hand corner off the front cover as you can see from my pic.

I still have that passport to this day, even though it expired in 1991. :smiley:

I see; that’s good then, in SK you have to hand the old passport in, or pay a fine if you don’t. Same fine as if you’d lost it.
My current passport is ~3yrs old, not a single stamp in it!

Anybody managed to keep some landing cards?

11

I only kept mine because, when all the pages were full it was sent away and another 90 page one was clipped to it, because the full one contained valid visas i have one that is 2x 90 page ones and a 35 page one all clipped together ,also i had two passports so one could be away getting the visas for the next trip.

I am young, but still have some in mine:

  1. Turkish visa and stamps
  2. Turkish stamps about taking a car in and out
  3. Serbia And Montegero (as for then)
  4. Bulgaria.

I have some more ■■■ and Bulgaria in it.
