As per the serving capacity of each Passport Seva Kendra (PSK), online appointment slots are opened on daily basis.
However, in cases, where applicants are not able to obtain online appointments at PSKs, they are advised to visit
concerned Regional Passport Office (RPO) in their area. Such applicants should fill-up the application online, generate
‘Application Reference Number’ and visit RPO along with printed ‘ARN Sheet’. RPO will consider such cases and will
give staggered appointments keeping in view the load/capacity at the respective PSK under their jurisdiction. Tatkaal
and other urgency applications will be given preference in allotting appointments.
Applicants having confirmed appointments and who are unable to visit PSK due to some reason, are advised to
reschedule/cancel their appointments at-least 15 hours prior to the scheduled date/time, so that these appointments
may be released to other applicants in queue. In case of ‘no show’ of the applicant on the scheduled day & time, the
data captured for that applicant will be deleted from the system including ARN number and such applicants will be
required to fill-up the ‘data’ again for obtaining fresh appointments.
