The passport was still valid when he left Thailand. He received his new pssport via the post and that is why it includes a letter telling you that you only have 30 days validity left on the old one. Sorry if my post did not make sense. I think I was stressed when writing it, but hopefully all will be ok.
They will most likely cut the old one at the embassy. it is best to keep them in my opinion. I am try to get my french passport and it is a little harder without an old one to show them.'
There may well not be a problem with the passports and hopefully they put the visa in the new passport which makes the old one obsolete anyway. i think he was worried about it because other things have been so hard.
they may well do this at the embassy. Once you receive a new passport from Australia via the post, they also include a letter informing you how long you have to travel on the now old passport. They give you 30 days exactly.
Most certainly no. The only wheel chair friendly I have see are people sitting in motorbike side cars in their wheelchairs ...which is such a great idea but then the pavements are shocking, huge gutters and stairs everywhere.
Yeah right! That is a dream that is not coming true. You will have to do some more research and this is a good place for it and through on websites too. Good luck!
