Indian citizens living in Canada may need to renew or reissue their passports because of an approaching expiry date, exhausted pages, changes to personal details, or a lost or damaged passport. The required documents and application process depend on the applicant’s circumstances.
How BIC Canada helps
BIC Canada follows a detailed process to prepare your Indian passport application:
Assess your requirements
We review your current passport, status in Canada and reason for renewal or reissue to identify the appropriate application type and potential concerns before taking on your file.
Review your supporting documents
We assess your passport, Canadian immigration documents, address proof, photographs and other relevant records. Additional documents may be required for minor applicants, changes to personal details, or lost or damaged passports.
Prepare your application
We help complete the required forms and organize supporting documents according to the applicable checklist. We check names, dates, addresses and personal details across your records to identify discrepancies that may require clarification.
Review and finalize your submission
Your application goes through several stages of review to identify missing information and correct errors. We guide you through the required signatures, appointments and submission arrangements, including any steps you must complete personally.
Passport issuance and processing times are determined by the appropriate Indian authorities. Additional verification may be required, and travel plans should not depend on an assumed passport delivery date.
