My passport got damaged and I am not staying at my native place. Can I get a new passport from my current location ?

Answered on February 11,2019
Yes, you can get a new passport from your new city. You have to first register in Passport seva website with required details. Then you will be given an option to choose your RPO. Choose the RPO nearest to you. By this way, you can book an appointment even if you are in a new city.
