To help our readers make the most of the new services that are now available, we will regularly update guides for using different government websites.

    Just the thought of applying for a passport in India is enough to induce a headache. Many people still sweat over minor details such as how to fill the form and which documents are needed. Many people still hire agents and getting the process completed for a fee because no one wants to waste hours at government offices, running from one department to another in order to get basic things done. If you are one of these people, stop furrowing your brows and relax. It’s easy to apply for a passport online. The process is long and you’ll still have to go to the passport office, but you definitely won’t need an agent to get the job done as long as you follow these steps.

    1. Go to the Passport Seva website.
    2. Click Register Now in the box titled Apply.
    3. Now fill the form to create an account on the Passport Seva website. You need to select the passport office of the city you’re living in now, not your native place.

You’ll get your passport after police verification is complete. In the meantime, you can check the status of your application here. To track your application status:

    1. Go to the website here.
    2. Choose Passport from the drop down menu, and type in your case number (which the PSK gives you) and your date of birth, and click on Track Status to see the status of your application.
