Hi all,


Received my new APEC card today and noticed it's only valid for 3 years? I recall seeing various articles (incl on Aus BT) that validity was to be extended to 5 years?

Has anyone else had an APEC card issued for 5 years, or was this an initiative/suggestion that never actually got implemented?

Yes now valid for 5 years or the expiry date of your passport!


For example: 2 years until your passport expires, the APEC card is only valid for two years on that passport, once you have your new passport you can obtain a updated APEC card with the remaining 3 years!

Bingo - passport expiry date explains it. Thanks for confirming!
