Can I travel to the Netherlands if I have a valid Schengen visa in an expired passport?
If your Schengen visa is valid but your passport has expired, you cannot travel to the Netherlands. You cannot enter the Netherlands on an expired passport. Find out what you need to do.
Travelling with two passports
To travel to the Netherlands you will need a valid passport. If your current passport has expired, you will need to apply for a new one. After you receive your new passport, take both the new passport and the old passport with the Schengen visa with you when you travel. You will need to show your new passport and your expired passport with the visa when you travel.
If your passport has holes in the page showing your visa, the visa is no longer valid for travel.
