Period of Validity
The The previous non-Machine-readable passport (MRP) was valid for 5 years, and could be renewed for 5 years after the first expiry date, and another 5 years after the expiry of the renewal (for a total of 15 years total usage). In all cases of renewal, a recent photograph of the bearer is affixed to the passport. The current Guyana CARICOM Passport is valid for 5 years and may not be renewed. Instead a new passport must be obtained at the end of that 5 year period, or if there is no more space for visas, or travel.

Famous quotes containing the words period of, period and/or validity:
“The post-office had a great charm at one period of our lives. When you have lived to my age, you will begin to think letters are never worth going through the rain for.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
“There is not any present moment that is unconnected with some future one. The life of every man is a continued chain of incidents, each link of which hangs upon the former. The transition from cause to effect, from event to event, is often carried on by secret steps, which our foresight cannot divine, and our sagacity is unable to trace. Evil may at some future period bring forth good; and good may bring forth evil, both equally unexpected.”
—Joseph Addison (1672–1719)
“There are ... two minimum conditions necessary and sufficient for the existence of a legal system. On the one hand those rules of behavior which are valid according to the system’s ultimate criteria of validity must be generally obeyed, and on the other hand, its rules of recognition specifying the criteria of legal validity and its rules of change and adjudication must be effectively accepted as common public standards of official behavior by its officials.”
—H.L.A. (Herbert Lionel Adolphus)
