No More Extra Pages for Your U.S. Passport
The U.S. Embassy in Beijing, China, has informed U.S. Citizens that the U.S. Government will no longer be able to add
additional visa pages to U.S. passports starting January 1, 2016. Instead, 52-page passport books will be issued at no
extra cost. This worldwide change enhances the security of U.S. passports.
U.S. Citizens who require extra pages in their U.S. passports should make an appointment to go to the U.S. Embassy’s
American Citizen Services unit before December 31, 2015. Once the change goes into effect worldwide, we recommend that
U.S. Citizens who travel frequently renew their passports early to ensure they have enough blank pages for visa stamps from
other countries.
