General Information


Your passport is a valuable document. It should always be kept either in your own custody or in the custody of a person duly authorised by you. If lost, or destroyed, the fact and circumstances should be immediately reported to the nearest Indian Mission/Post and the local police.
Your passport must not be altered or mutilated in anyway nor any endorsement made on it by any person other than a duly authorised official of the Government of India.
The maximum life of an Indian Passport is ten (10) years from the date of issue. Please ensure that you obtain a fresh passport within one year before its expiry, as issue of new passport, after expiry of previous passport, could take a number of weeks.
Please keep a photocopy of your passport in a safe place. In the event of loss or damage of the original passport, its photocopy helps the applicant in providing important passport details, which are necessary to process the application for duplicate passport. Without these details, issuance of duplicate passport may be delayed.
It is an offence under the Passport Act 1967 to give false information in the Application. Passport facilities can be denied on grounds of suppression of factual information, submission of false particulars, wilful damage of passport and for making unauthorised changes in the passports.
Your passport can be impounded or revoked by the Government of India under the provisions of the Passport Act 1967 in which event you will have to surrender the passport to the nearest Indian Passport issuing authority.
Application forms should be filled in fully, legibly (in capital letters) and accurately and submitted with the passport. Misrepresentation of facts may result in denial of passport/consular service. Applications received with incomplete details will remain unprocessed.
Every child should have a separate passport.

Issue of New Passport
An Application for a new passport can be made within one year before expiry of the old passport. For this purpose, an Application Form for an Indian Passport along with your expiring passport, three recent photographs, a copy of 'Resident Permit in Italy' and an affidavit should be submitted.
Extension of Short Validity Passport
The validity of this passport can be extended up to 10 years from the date of issue. In the case of minors (upto 18 years), the passport will be extented upto 5 years from the date of issue. Application Form for extension of validity along with three photographs should be submitted. References may be required to be made to the competent authorities in India, or Indian Missions/Posts abroad.
Duplicate Passports (in lieu of lost/damaged passports)
Please submit your application with the following documents:
Original Police Report intimating about loss of passport.
Eight photographs.

Additional information form for issue of duplicate passports. Form to be obtained from the Embassy.
Clear Photocopy of previous (lost) passport.
Statement giving details of the date/place/circumstances of the loss of passport.
Copies of any document indicating the personal particulars and the nationality status of the applicant. (The orginals may also be required to be shown to the Embassy).
One copy of the relevant affidavit.

It normally takes at least about 3 months to complete the verification process before duplicate passports can be issued. Duplicate passports are issued only on receipt of clearances from the concerned authorities in India. Applicants are, therefore, requested to refrain from making written/email/telephone inquiries during this period. Applicants are required to personally come to the Embassy for a duplicate passport in lieu of a lost/damaged passport.
It is important to furnish full, accurate and truthful information in the form. Misrepresentation of facts may result in denial of passport facilities. Applications received with incomplete details will not be processed. In case of second loss/damage a triplicate passport is issued with a warning letter. Application in respect of habitual losers of passports require even longer periods for processing.

Change of Name
For change of name or surname, consequent to marriage/divorce, please submit original marriage certificate or the original 'order' from the court pertaining to divorce along with photocopies and husband's/wife's passport.

In all other cases of change of name/surname in the passport, the change has first to be advertised in a daily newspaper, both in Italy and India (circulation in the area of your permanent and present residence). Original newspapers are required to be submitted. A sworn affidavit is also to be submitted along with application. Service is provided after a waiting period of 30 days from the date of publication of advertisement in the newspaper.
Passports for minors
Every child should have a separate passport. For applications for passport for a child, it is necessary to submit photocopies of the child's birth certificate, passports of the parents, Residential Permit, and family certificate. The originals of these documents are also required to be presented before the Consular Officer at the time submitting the application form.
Emergency Certificate
An Emergency Certificate (one way travel document) which authorises an Indian to enter India, is issued to a citizen of India whose passport has been lost, stolen or damaged and to whom new passports cannot be issued without approval from India. This is primarily with the objective of ensuring their return to India. The final decision of issuing an Emergency Certificate is subject to a detailed examination of the request by the Embassy. It might also require certain clearances from the concerned authorities in India and/or the concerned Indian Missions/Posts abroad.
Registration of Birth
All Indian nationals who are residents in Italy (other than the areas following under the jurisdiction of CGI, Milan) are required to register the birth of their children in the Embassy within six months from the date of birth. The applicants are required to submit the following documents for registration of birth of the children:
Photocopies of parent's passports
Copy of resident permit in Italy
Birth certificate issued from the commune in Italy
Note: Original documents are also to be submitted along with photocopies for verification.

Death certificate issued from the commune in Italy.
Passport of the deceased for cancellation.
Resident permit in Italy of the deceased. Note: Original documents are also to be submitted along with photocopies for verification.
