Keeping a visa, renewing passport
We went thru...to get the Brazil Visa for a trip a couple of years ago. It is good until the end on 2013 (5 year). We are looking at a cruise that would include flying into or out of Rio and cruising on the Amazon for several days.
My passport expires in Feb, 2012. Visa 2013. Can I renew my passport and somehow keep my Visa (or still use it)?
Thanks

Thank you newyorkgeorge
Sent my package ($110 check, form 82 with new color picture and my old passport) today. The passport will be renewed for 10 more years. They will send me a new passport and return the old one (with my hard fought Brazilian Visa in it...they were dealing with our strick rules following 9-11, so I was dealing with theirs.
As you stated, I then will use both old and new for Brazilian customs.
