Height

[Ali Khan219]

Hello friends,

I have mentioned my height as 5.10 in eAPR application. Now I have received my PPR and has to submit my passport and height details once again. Last time I measured the height by myself and just today I went to clinic and got it checked there and it comes out to be 5.8. May be I made a mistake last time when measuring by myself . What height should I mention now at the time of submitting passport? Should I also mention the reason for difference in height in eapr and now?

They are not going to measure you with a tape.

It might be advised to mention the height difference. About going back to the clinic to measure your height again might not be necessary. I am almost sure that it is allowed to measure your height alone. You might want to use sites or apps like https://www.heightcomparison.com to measure your current height. In case you are interested, you can compare your old and the new height. Sometimes I do not see the reason to specify your height in the acts, but this makes the life of law enforcement easier in case they are searching for someone by just taking a look at the height.

It might be helpful to mention the height difference. Going back to the clinic again might not be necessary, since you can usually measure your height yourself.

If you want a clearer comparison, there are simple tools online (like https://howheight.com) that let you visualize height differences side by side, which can be surprisingly useful.

Even though height may not always seem important in documents, it can still make identification easier in certain situations.
