The passport office has been expanding its citizen-oriented initiatives with the objective of making passport services more accessible, convenient and efficient.
Appointments Open from October 6
Students, trainees, research scholars and teachers associated with reputed educational and training institutions across Uttar Pradesh can begin the appointment process from October 6.

Four Centres, Wider Reach
By taking the special outreach campaign beyond Lucknow to Kanpur, Gorakhpur and Varanasi, the Regional Passport Office intends to make the initiative accessible to a wider section of young applicants.
