Passport Agent & Cosultant

A passport is a travel document issued by a country’s government to its citizens that verifies the identity and nationality of the holder for the purpose of international travel. Passports are small booklets that typically contain the bearer’s name, place of birth, date of birth, the date of issue, date of expiry, passport number, photo and signature.

All private citizens applies for an ordinary passport however the other two types of passports are for government workers who are being send overseas on official business only.

There are three types of passports that are issued

• Regular/Ordinary Passport: The regular passport is basically the one that comes in a navy blue color. This type of passport is generally issued to the normal people of the country who need to visit abroad for general purposes like education, business, medical emergency, tourism, etc. So, if you are a normal guy, this is the type of passport that you will be issued for traveling abroad.
• Diplomatic Passport: The diplomatic passport usually comes in a maroon cover. This passport is not meant for the general public and is only issued to the government diplomats and top-ranking government officials in India. This passport basically means authorities. So, if you see someone carrying this type of passport then it means that the person in inquiry is at a significant position with the government of India.
• Official Passport: The last type of passport is called an official passport. It comes in a white cover. As you would have probably guessed by now, this type of passport is again not meant for the general public. It is only given to people who are traveling abroad for official business. So, if you find this passport on someone then it is a sign that he is in the foreign nation for the purpose of representing the government of India.

You can qualify for Indian citizenship by being born in the country, being born elsewhere but with at least one Indian parent, or by being granted citizenship through a naturalization process. If none of these categories apply you will not be classed as an Indian citizen, and will not be entitled to an Indian passport.

Passports are important legal documents and if you lose your passport or suspect it might have been stolen, this has to be reported to the Police. You can then apply to have your passport reissued.
