OUR PROCESS

A formal Police Lost Report or FIR is strictly required before applying for a duplicate passport in lost cases.
If a damaged passport has legible details and valid visa pages, it is treated under damaged category with lesser scrutiny.
Re-issue in lost cases is subject to verification against the national passport database and mandatory police verification.
