Is it possible to renew?
You can apply for passport from anywhere in India, for renewal or for a fresh one. You can choose the Passport Office (PO) and thus the desired Passport Seva Kendra (PSK)/ Post Office Passport Seva Kendra (POPSK) under the PO where you wish to submit your application irrespective of whether the present residential address specified in the application form lies within the jurisdiction of the selected PO or not. The Police Verification would be conducted at the address specified in the application form. The passport will be printed and dispatched by the PO selected for application submission by the applicant to the present residential address printed on the passport. Isnt that hassle free ?
