Can I obtain a 2 year visa on a passport with 1 year validity
Upvote:3
This depends entirely on what type of visa you are applying for and to which country.
The US, for example, regularly issues visas that are beyond the expiry date of the passport. In this case, you have to carry your old expired passport with you, as it contains the visa - along with your current passport as this is valid for travel.
Other countries do not issue you visas beyond the expiry date of your passport.
Then there is the case of Kuwait - where your visa expires once your passport expires, even if it had a longer validity stamped. This rule was initiated in 2016 - in order to curb visa fraud. Eventually, Kuwait will also stop issuing visas beyond the limit of the passport:
The Director, Residency Directorate – Ministry of Information, Maj Gen Talal Ibrahim Maarafi, emphasized that beginning 1st January 2016, Residency Visas given to expatriates would be linked to the validity of their passports, which is in line with Article 12 and Article 15 of the Residency Law.
He explained that the validity of renewed residency visa would not exceed the validity of the passports’ and the residency would be cancelled the moment the passports expire. The holders are not permitted to obtain a new residency until the passports are renewed.
