Question: My husband and I travel a great deal. We will be going to Sweden, Netherlands, and Kenya this summer. One passport expires 3 March 2015 and has 2 pages left; the other passport expires 10 December 2012, and has only 1 page left. Should we order new visa pages?

Answer: The State Department recommends that passport holders apply for additional visa pages when their passports have only 2 to 4 visa pages left. There is no fee for this service unless you request expedited service. For complete instructions, click the link below.
