2005??? Do you mean 2015? New passports, which are the e-passports, are the ones that will only be accepted after October 2015. E-passports were first issued from 2009 and if your fiancee will get replacement for the passport she lost now, she doesn't have to worry about it being invalid by October 2015 because since 2009, DFA is issuing e-passports. This article is for those who still have the green and machine readable passports that were issued before 2009.
