As long as the visa itself has not been 'damaged' in the process of the passport having its corner clipped off (i.e. the scissors have gone through the corner of the visa too). The Americans won't accept that visa as valid any longer - so if you are having a passport cancelled that has a US visa in it, it's worth putting a sticky with a note in the page that carries the visa, to alert the passport issuing authority.Dawie wrote:This is in contrast to the Americans who will often issue a 10-year tourist visa into passports that have much less than 10 years validity left.

I successfully travelled to Spain this Christmas with my cancelled passport
(which has my still valid Schengen visa and ILR sticker)
and a brand new passport with no stamps or visas in it.
..........The UK entry stamp was also placed in my new passport
and the immigration officer wrote "VIPP" underneath the stamp in blue ink.
I assume this stands for "Visa in Past Passport" or something like that.
