Hi Sir, I just wanted to say "THANK YOU VERY MUCH" for your very helpful video with your editable anexure E form. I applied for my wife's Renewal at HCI LONDON and the passport has arrived in 38 working days. Thank you again for your video you explain each step very carefully.
You are most welcome Said. No need to say thanks as I just shared my experience .
Best of luck ❤
Thanks for making useful video. yesterday I have received my passport after 52 days of applying.
Great 👍. 8 week is the normal time. Best of luck
Thanks for the detailed video,
Yesterday we received passport after renewal(with address change), we submitted on 08 dec 2023 and received by post on 08 feb 2024😅, just adding comment so will be helpful for others to get an idea on timeline
Thsnks Rahul
How you change address please replay
Some updates, to apply for tatkal now we dont have to write any letter to HCI or Embassy. You can just follow the normal procedure in website by selecting tatkal instead of ordinary passport. Only one 2x2 photo is required for the whole application. For tatkal, you should show them 2 Indian ID cards say aadhar, DL, Electoral Card, Pancard etc.
Thanks anand.
I was about to make an updated video covering these points.
Keep us posted about your timelines please
@anandkrishnapanicker3547 @TheHyperloopFamily Is the PPF form required for tatkal applicants?
@@parveez90 No its not required for Tatkal also. If you come under London High Commission, then the best VFS office you can go is Cardiff. Very friendly staff and they dont eat your money.
@@anandkrishnapanicker3547
Could you please share how long it took for you to receive the new passport under Tatkal? Also, I'm curious to know if you were granted the full 10-year validity?
@@parveez90 I got it in 4 days. Yes its valid for 10 years
Thank you so much . Your video has helped me step by step .
Most welcome
Sharing my passport renewal timelines:
Application mode: Tatkaal (No change in Address, passport due to expire in 6 months)
Application center - VFS Belfast
20-Mar (Wed) - Appointment date
22-Mar (Fri) - “Passport has been printed” status
23-Mar(Sat) - Mail for Police Verification, also phone call from police station (Guwahati, Assam), sent my Brother in law to the police station same day, Passport and Aadhaar copy requested and submitted.
26-Mar - “Passport has been handed over by the embassy/consulate to the osp executive for further dispatch to the applicant” status
27-Mar - Received the new and old passports sent via Royal Mail.
On the appointment date, submit all the documents as mentioned in the VFS checklist, along with 2 Indian IDs for Tatkaal applicants. You can also submit a self-addressed Royal Mail stamped special delivery envelope for receiving the passport. This is optional and you can go with DX Delivery which is dthe efault courier of VFS.
Total cost for Tatkaal came to around £172.

Hi
I am from Kerala, was working in Bengaluru and passport address is same as in Bengaluru. Now i dont have any proof of address at the time of renewal in UK. Which address should i produce? I have address proof in Kerala(not been there recently for 1 yr) and in UK.
Can i update my passport address with Kerala address? Could anyone help me with the solution?
Thank you!!
Hi
Now PPF form is not needed. Just add your new Kerala address and it would be fine.
I did the same for my passport and it went absolutely fine
Can anyone please help me with the link to check the status of my passport renewal? I am unable to find it 🙏
Hi Banu
You can log in into your passport gov website and check status from there
Immensely helpful. Thanks much brother. Keep up doing great job.
One query
Must all photocopies be self attested please??
Hi Abhishek. Yes. You have to self-attest all the documents.
Thanks for the video. Can you please also share how did you update new passport number to the home office
Hi Nupur
You don't have to update the passport number to home office.
Thanks for good information. Could you tell change in appearance form is essential for adults also or it is only for minors.
Thanks.
Mostly for minors
Sir you mentioned in your video that you contacted the consulate to know about the application. Can you share how were you able to talk to them. I tried contacting IHC Birmingham's public service unit contact number but all it give the robotics response repeatedly. How can I talk to somebody to know what is it actually happening with my application.
Hi Anjali
Best is to drop an email to passport.london@mea.gov.in and ask
Hi sir, inorder to get the process done faster can we choose tatkaal for the type of application and how much time would it take after that.
Hi Haseeb
Yes you can apply for tatkal if your address is same as old passport but best is to select normal process at first and then ask vfs to change it to tatkal.
It takes ~2-4 weeks to get it in tatkal
Just FYI, Submitted the passport application at Manchester for minor with a few things to highlight... on page 1 of the application form signature of the minor was required (age just above 5 years). Had to hold kids hand and sign the name. On page 3 i could sign on behalf. Also annexure and declaration i had to sign on behalf. Seems each VFS works differently surprisingly. Anyways thanks for all the help during the application process.
Sandy I asked my 6 years old to write her name on the form and she did it. I think I mentioned the same to you in the previous video as well. Everything else was to be signed by parents..
@@TheHyperloopFamily Oh...i misunderstood then..😇
Thanks very helpful video
Thanks a lot
Hi just watched ur video and it’s very informative and helpful.
Just wanted to know if there are any issues going on at present to renew Indian passport in UK?
Not that I know of.
@@TheHyperloopFamily Thanks.
Hi,
Thanks for the detailed video.
I have submitted the passport renewal application to VFS and they informed me that "my application need correction and have paid £10 for application recreation"
They have created the application in their login and didn't shared the application copy.
On receiving the passport, In address section - post office name was misprinted.
I have contacted the VFS center about the issue and given the required detail but they are not responding back. last email from them says "Please note that the passport has been printed by the competent authorities as per your previous records."
Please suggest if you have any thought process on this?
Hi Kumar, The coreecetion process is leangthy and will cost you money. I will leave it as such for now. It will not create any problems to you in UK.
If the address is same , then also we need to carry address proof to vfs
Yes
This video helped us a lot. Thanks. just wanted to know we have renewed our kids passport. The brps are valid for quite a few years now, do we need to submit or inform anything to UKVI after renewal if there are no changes e.g name, address etc?
No. No need to update or inform anyone
@@TheHyperloopFamily Thank you... another question I have my renewal due on 2025, I didn't change my surname on the passport after marriage the time I traveled. Now, the thing is all my indian documents have my new surname...so is it easier to change the surname and address details during renewal here in the UK. I have all the relevant documents to justify.
@@moumitadas9377yes. That should be absolutely fine. All you need is your marriage certificate
@@TheHyperloopFamily Thank you so much
Hey thanks for the helpful video. Is the passport printed in India and then sent back to UK ?
It is printed in the UK but overall process takes around 6-8 weeks
Very good explanation.
Do we have to type the details or can be hand written?
Hi Arif , You have to fill online form
Thank you for the information, I am leaving In Shipley and thinking to going for appointment in Birmingham. after watching you video I will go to Bradford. You saved my £100 ?
You are Most welcome
hello sir……now i live in uk ….i want delete my spouse name from passport……which documents needed
You need to fill the renewal form and select change in personal particular. You don't have to submit any documents
Hello sir this side mandeep i want to ask you about passport renewal i tell you my passport had expired but i have appointment for renewal passport please tell me any issue for expired passport when i go vfs please confirm
You will not. Have any issues
Thank you sir
HI Sir, Would like to known about the affidavit for change of appearance. Do I have to just download that form and submit it or is there anything else. Thank you.
If there is a change in appearance of the applicant (from the previous passport such as beard no beard or shaven head ), they will need to provide a Sworn Affidavit in the prescribed format.
If there is
Thank you for the video .. really helpful !!🙏🙏 one question . not sure if I missed it but is it better to mention Indian address to be printed in passport or Uk address?. You did mention Indian but what is the diff if you do other ? I see there is an option to enter Uk and India address.
Usually, a UK address is not permitted on the Indian passport. However, in exceptional circumstances only, when the applicant proves that he/she does not have a permanent address in India and he/ she has Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) in UK, an applicant may be permitted to reflect his/her UK address in his/her Indian passport. An affidavit from the applicant about his/ her not having a permanent address in India, must be attached with the application.
You have to add India address for verification and UK address for passport delivery
@@TheHyperloopFamily thanks so much !!
Thanks for the video. I need to change my address in the passport and my friend is residing in that address. Whether he can visit the police station for verification or only family members need to go?
Hi Vijay
I was in similar situation and I send my friend to police station for verification and I gave him all the relevant documents.
Your friend can go.
@@TheHyperloopFamily What are the documents that are required to be submitted in india by family/friends?
A copy of passport and local address proof
Hi , I Took appointment , had all the papers but my name was not in there list . They told rebook another appointment, no specific resin given . Any idea why ?
This is weird. Did you get a copy of your appointment? If your appointment is confirmed you will get an appointment letter.
Its been thus status since 5 days "Your passport has been printed and being forwarded to Embassy/Consulate. The Embassy/Consulate will contact you once they receive the passport for dispatch."
You need to wait for few more days to get a sms for dispatch

I want to ask another thing that after renewal of passport do we need inform UKVI that we got new passport? If yes how we can do it?
Thank you.
Congrats Kashsih
No you don't have to inform UKVI about the update. While travelling don't forget to carry both the passports
Thanks a lot for the video. Could you please shed some light on what documents would be needed for the police verification if they visit the address in India? My parents are sr. citizens and might not be well prepared for any probing questions or requirements they might bring up.
You will need

Hi are we supposed to fill all the forms with pen or do we need to edit the documents and then print it out?
As you want. I filled the form, took print and signed
@@TheHyperloopFamily Thank you for your response. Had a few other questions about how to fill the forms. In the ppf form for references can we give our parents details? Or does it have to be someone other than the parents?
In annexure E - are we supposed to mention our current uk address or the India's permanent address?
Hi Hyperloop family, thank you for step by step guidance, it is the most informative available on internet. Please help me answer thsi query - if the address updated in my passport and adhaar are for a rented property where i stayed for a few year in india - can i use the same address? I dont have any other address as i directly came to UK then. I am trying to re-issue passport as it is close to expiry.
Hi do you have any address for your home in India where your parents live ? If yes please give that else I would suggest that you drop an email to passport.london@mea.gov.in telling them you don't have any address in india and ask for using the UK address

Hi, my passport expires in 4 months and im currently working in UK. Can I renew my Indian passport in UK?
The current video is about the same process. Yes you can renew your Indian passport in the UK
Hi Sir, Thanks for the reply.
I am staying in shared accommodations so don't have any address proof like house agreement, utility bills and electricity bills, but I will get address proof letter from my company HR. Can I use this for passport renewal?
I applied for my passport renewal using your video guide, and it's been four weeks with no change in the tracking status, which still states, "Passport application and fee details received. Currently under processing at the embassy/consulate." Can you provide guidance on whom I should contact regarding my application now? Any contact number you can share
Hi Anjali
You need to be patient. Right now it is taking 12 - 14 weeks to get the passport. Keep an eye on your spam folder incase you get an email for police verification
Same with me its been 4 weeks 😢😢 we have to travel in next 3 weeks
Same situation- we have also applied before 4 weeks and no email received and no change in status also.

Hi, really useful video. Just a concern, my husband's passport already expired which we unfortunately did not realise. Will this be an issue during the appointment? What would you recommend stating in the self-explanation letter as to why the passport wasn't renewed on time?
You can apply for passport after 3 years of expiry without need of having any explanation. You will be fine, Go for it
@@TheHyperloopFamily Oh, sorry a little confused - "For passports expired less than one year, a self-explanation letter as to why the passport was not renewed in time needs to be submitted." This is from VFS website. Any idea about this or how to respond?
You can simply write a letter saying you missed it because of oversight. This is just vfs requirement
Hi, apart from the Tatkal option, do we have an option like a fastrack application or something?
No. We don't have anything like that
@@TheHyperloopFamily So the only option in order to get it fast is the Tatkal one right?
@@arjung7110 yes. That's the only option
@@TheHyperloopFamily Thank you! 😃😃
Good explanation, bro.
I came on the master visa due to some problems. I can not finish my master's degree, but I have a diploma certificate and have paid all of my fees. I am currently on a FLR visa and am waiting for a new intake to switch my visa to student again.
I want to update my surname on the passport.
Which documents are required? I have valid visas for the US and Canada, so I need to apply again. That is Visa
It will transfer to a new passport. ??
You will need any document (govt document) which has your surname on it. If you don't have anything you may have to publish it in newspaper and get it done here (best is to talk to a lawyer). Your old passport will.be returned to you and you can use the same for your travel to US/Canada
Thank you for the video, Can you please help me with a few queries:
- what address proof do I need to give for a change in permanent address in the process of renewal passport, please?
-Also any form we need to fill out for the India address change from the old passport?
- Do we need to Register online for the minor as well or we can use our creds and apply for application minor and ourselves?
Child and parent adhaar card is the best, if that's not available you can use utility bills.
There is no separate form for it.
You can use your credentials to create an account for kids and fill the form. If you are filling both the form together you can add two application (it worked for me when I applied)
@@TheHyperloopFamily thank you✌
What if I don’t have BRP card can I apply . As my visa is not valid anymore please reply .
Ypu can still try but they will need your BRP. Why don't you apply for visa extension

Thank you for the help in filling the form
Was very helpful
For the police verification , do we have to initiate anything or would they visit our address for sure ? / only sometimes ? Or can we speed up somehow ?? I had given my Indian phone number which I’m not actively using as I’m in uk
So wondering.
You will get an email from the authorities. It normally ends up in spam folder so keep an eye.
Once you get that email send someone to the police station with documents and it will be done
@@TheHyperloopFamily ok I’ll look out for it
Is it from passport seva ? Document wise ? Ration card will do ? And Aadhar ?
Adhaar card is the best if you have one else Ration Card/ electricity bill/water bill

Children between the ages of 15 and 18 have the option to apply for a minor passport valid until he/she attains the 18 years of age or full validity passport of 10 years. Different fees are applicable for different validity.
You can go to the VFS office and apply on his behalf. He need to sign all the forms and application.

Change of Appearance Affidaivit can be signed and sealed by Hounslow VISA office?
If not whats the process to do it through HCI London?
If i do it via local Notary public whats the average fees for it?
Change of appearance affidavit should be certified by notary public. certifying that the the new photo to be incorporated in the passport is of the applicant.
You can search for a public notary in your area. Charges varies from location to location and can be in range of 50-120£
Not at all bhai, change of appearance form is signed by VFS only.. no need of notary and all.. they ll click a new photo of you for 9 pounds and give you appearance form to fill then and there only...just go directly to vFS, don't go anywhere else for anything
Shiv HCI London website says that It should be notarized by a notary. Though Vfs do many things that are not mentioned on the website

Personally I would suggest that you use same address as yours. Using your passport and some other address proof

Hello, District names changed in Andhra Pradesh few years ago. Do i need to have any proof for the same ?
Yes. You must submit the most recent address with proper details
Hello, Very informative video.
I have some concerns as I am in the UK and my passport is going to expire in 2025 and I am going to extend my visa in 2024. So my concern is passport number is going to same as previous passport number? And another is my Indian address changed now so I have to mention new Indian address or old address is okay? As I am going to renew passport in the UK.
And is there any problem if I renew my passport before my visa extension?
Thanks,
Hi Vikas
You will not face any issues with your visa extension. You will be absolutely fine ❤
You will have to add your new address as police verification will take place. You will need some proof for your new address.
Hiii.. I had my appointment and submitted the documents for my passport renewal in Leicester on 31 st July,(almost more than 5 weeks now) when I checked my status, it shows under process in consulate now. Do I need to do anything ??

Hi, my passport is going to expire in april 2024 and im going to indian in January for a month. Do i need to renew my passport before going?
Hi Harry you can travel back to India but you won't be allowed to come back on the same.
So either get it renewed here now or get it done in India when you are going.
@@TheHyperloopFamily okay
Thank you so much
How much time they take ( renewal) to deliver passport from appointment date
Depends. Right now it is talking 6-10 weeks
Hi! Did you have to attach a Royal mail envelope too?
No. They will use a waterproof envelope and they use dxmail

Hi have a question regarding the address proof, does the address proof need to have our name mentioned in it? My parents have shifted to a new house in india ( my old passport is in a different address) and all the bills are in their name, theres not rental agreement cause they own the house... Also for uk do you know what are the documents which can used for address proof?
Hi Ashwin
Yes you can use their address proof. Also you can update your adhaar card address online and use that.
For UK address you can use bank statement / DL/ Utility bill / council tax
Thank you for letting me know. I was searching online for the list of acceptable documents for address proof but all I was able to find was that they require utilities or tenancy as address. And for me the issue is both India and UK I don't have these as I'm living with someone else and there's no chance that I can include my name in any of the bills or contract.
I am currently working on trying to update the address on the adhar card but was just looking for an online source which mentioned that adhaar is acceptable. And the bank statement which I intend to use is just the one which I can generate myself from the banking app.. It should show my address and my name
@@ashwinvimal4082
Please see this for address proof in India
www.passportindia.gov.in/AppOnlineProject/popuponline/AttachmentAdvisorSub?subDocID=7001&minorFlag=1
For UK best is to get Bank Statement you can download one from your app and it should be fine.
Use this portal to update your adhaar address
ssup.uidai.gov.in/web/guest/ssup-home
This will work if your number link to adhaar card is working.
I would suggest that you try after 11 pm India time and you would be able to login
Hi, I recently submitted my passport application on my parent’s address as well and gave their Aadhar as my address proof in India. The only document they required from me was a notarised No objection certificate from my Father and his Aadhar (Self Attested and notarised). I wanted to change my address on the Aadhar as well but I wouldn’t be able to do it in time. Just sharing the experience in case it helps.
