My passport has gone for stamping , but due to mishandling of the fedex people the passport cover has come out . Can they still stamp visa on this passport and can I travel to Canada in this or do I have to re issue a new passport? My visa in usa is going to end soon .

    You mean the passport book itself fell apart? Yeah, you're going to need a new passport.

    Has the new visa vignette been already applied to one of the passport pages? Commented Jul 1, 2022 at 20:34
  • @littleadv that's a complete answer, i guess

  • New passport, and make a claim to FedEx for the old one. If you need to pay a premium for it to be expedited, it might be worth adding the cost of that on to your claim. (This is all assuming you insured the delivery, which I hope you would have). Commented Jul 4, 2022 at 8:35

Modern passports have the biometric chips in the cover, so if the cover is separate from the interior, you can obviously not use it anymore - the cover could be from any other passport.
You need a new one.
