Getting a new passport

Fill the online pre-enrolment form and book a centre and time, then go on that day with your original documents to have the form checked, pay the fee and give photo and biometrics. At a District Administration Office a 34-page passport costs Rs 5,000 and usually takes 10 to 30 days; the Department of Passports offers fast service only (34 pages Rs 12,000, within two working days).
