How do I remove Wallet passes from a device - for example after upgrading to a new iPhone or Apple Watch?

If you’re no longer using a device, you can remove its Wallet passes directly on the device or online. Once removed, you can add your passes to a new iPhone or Apple Watch.
You can remove a pass from your old device in two ways:

On your iPhone: Open the Wallet app and select the pass you want to remove. Tap the More button in the upper-right corner, scroll down and tap Remove Pass. Note: This also removes the pass from paired Apple Watches.
Online (if you no longer have the device): Go to account.apple.com and sign in. Select Devices from the sidebar, choose your device, and click Remove items. Note: this removes all Wallet cards and passes from that device.

After removal, you can add your passes to your new device.
