Hello Eldorado, I think a similar case was discussed in this forum earlier.Eldorado said:My people please I need your advise on this. My hubby just realized that his passport will expire on May 23rd which is less than 6 months as requested by Accra. Can he still present this Passport for the Ugwu leaf or will need to get a new one. He enquired from passport office already and was told that a fresh passport will be issued with a different passport number. Hope this doesnt have effect on receiving the Ugwu leaf since the number will be different from the one in their records.
Your expert advice on the above request will be appreciated.
I think it was stated that a renewal has to be done first. Maybe Abuja am not too sure.
I wish you all the best.
