घर बैठे बनेगा पासपोर्ट! देखें क्या है नई प्रक्रिया Passport Van Service
Passport Van Service – As soon as we hear the name of getting a passport, thoughts like long lines, visits to passport office and agent's fees start coming to our mind. But now all these hassles are a thing of the past. The Government of India has started a great facility called "Passport Van Service", through which you can now get a passport made from home. That means no crowd, no agent and no line in government office!
What is Passport Van Service?
Passport Van Service is a mobile facility, which will come to your door and complete the entire process of getting a passport made there itself. This van has complete arrangements for camera, biometric scanner, document scanning and verification. This service has been started especially for those people who cannot go to office, live in rural areas or who are short of time.
Who will benefit the most?
The elderly, busy professionals, women and those who live in remote villages will get the most benefit from this van service. Earlier, those who had to go to the passport service center several kilometers away, now the facility will come to their street.
How to apply?
- It is very easy to apply for Passport Van Service.
- First of all go to the website www.passportindia.gov.in.
- Create an account here by “Register” or “Login”.
- Then choose the “Apply for Fresh Passport/Reissue” option.

How will the document verification be done?
The passport van will come to your given address on the day and time slot you have booked. The officer present in the van will check your original documents, take fingerprints and photos, and complete the process from there. After this, police verification will be done and within about 15 days the passport will reach your home by post.
Is this service available in your city?
At present, this service has not started in all the cities. If you are not seeing the option of “Mobile Passport Seva” at the time of appointment, it means that at present this facility is not active in your area. But the government is working on a plan to implement it soon in the whole country.
Why is this service special?
Imagine, now to get a passport, neither will you have to go to the government office, nor will you have to pay money to the agent and there will be no long waiting.
