It does not affect your stamp 4. However, you are obliged to apply for a new stamp when you have your new passport.

Say for example, if your Stamp 4 permission should be valid for 5 years, but because your passport expires in 2 years, they will give you a stamp 4 that is valid till the expiry day of your passport.

Once you get your new passport, you need to contact INIS to transfer the remaining 3 years of validity to your new passport.

See Q53 for details regarding how to apply for this.

I would suggest that you send an email to the address in that document first. They should be able to advise the next step for you. (Make sure that you send to them early enough. It sometimes takes over a month for them to reply to you.)

You can of course try your luck in your local Garda station directly, but some smaller stations do not always follow the latest update.

Hi

Its bit confusing now . I am spouse of irish national , renewing my visa every year since got permisson for leave to remain in the state on merriage base. I renew my visa towice in first 2 years. When i went there 3rd time to renew my visa the officer stamped my passport for 1 year again and ask me to collect IRP card after 2 weeks .Now when i went to collect my IRP Card , officer told me that i was entitled for 2 years this time and by mistake she stamped my passport for 1 year . Officer cancel ther wrong stamp for 1 year and put a new stamp for 1 year and 6months .because my IRP card was valid untill the last day of my passport expiration.Because the officer did not advise me to Renew my passport and get the full 2 years stamp on my new passport. Should i make an oppointment with them and explain the officer there in the office , or explain them before taking my appointment.

Hi littlerr

Please i would like to know the required documents for stamp 4 renewal in relation to zambrano in the light of current lockdown and applying online via the newly reconstructed website.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks
