Indian Passport Renewal (On Expiry of Old Passport)

Post by ric1982 » Tue Apr 10, 2012 6:33 am

Hi,

I have following two questions regarding renewal of Indian Passport on expiry of old Passport.

My passport if due to expire in July 2012 and I wish to apply renewal now from Birmingham Only. My questions are ...

(1) What is the photo size accepted in Birmingham?
(2) My address in India has changed slightly (We still live at the same location but the local council has changed the building number for some reason). What documents do I need to submit if I put this slightly new address in the form? (which is slightly different to the address on the old passport)

thanks

35 mm x 45 mm. Birmingham does not have special photo requirements
(2) My address in India has changed slightly (We still live at the same location but the local council has changed the building number for some reason). What documents do I need to submit if I put this slightly new address in the form? (which is slightly different to the address on the old passport)
Address proof of new address. Typically bank statement, ration card, PAN Card. It needs to have the new address clearly mentioned. If it has the old address on it, then get it corrected on the supporting document and submit along with passport applicaiton
