Can you tell me, how much time will it take to issue a new passport....
Hi,
Under Indian Passport Act, there is no way to laminate/fixed any thing on your issued passport. The ONLY option is to apply for a new Passport under 'reissue' (not renew) category.
The process is;
1. File Police FIR
2. Submit:
-FIR,
-Damaged Passport,
-Proof of address (only in case of new address)
-Rs. 2,500 (if you want new Passport with 7 working days thn add Rs. 1000, may be Rs. 1500 more)
CHC shall not issue any visa if your issued Passport is really damaged.
