D / VR - transfer of visa into a passport
If you are a holder of a long-term visa or long-term or permanent residence permit and your passport has expired or has been lost or stolen, you can file an application at the Embassy of the Czech Republic, which has issued this visa or permit, for the transfer of the visa sticker into a new passport.
You can also apply for a visa for the purpose of collecting a residence permit - D/VR, if the validity of a long-term residence permit or visa expires in the course of proceedings on a legitimate newly filed application, or after approving applications for a long-term residence permit filed at an embassy, to return/enter the Czech Republic.
