Question: My passport expire on 8/2011, and I ran out the page and I need travel to China next month, do I need to renew my passport or add more pages?

Answer: You can add visa pages to your current passport and renew it later or take the opportunity to renew it now. The choice is yours.

There is no fee to add visa pages unless you need to expedite the process. Given the fact that you need to travel to China next month and regular processing takes 4-6 weeks, you will probably have to expedite this service.

Your best option, however, may be to renew your passport now. Passport Services recommends that application for renewals be submitted approximately nine (9) months before the expiration date since many countries require at least six (6) months of validity before they will issue a visa or allow a foreigner to enter.

This means that the recommended date for you to renew your passport is 12/2010. By renewing now, you lose almost a year of validity but you will not have to complete another process at the end of the year.
