Affidavit / Annexure 'C' or Annexure 'D' for Minor's Passport Application in India
With the liberalisation of passport rules, the requirement of attestation/notarisation of the Annexures has been done away with. It is therefore clarified that affidavits/annexures required for applying for a child's passport in India — in cases where one parent is in New Zealand — do not need to be attested by the Consulate General of India.
Passport applications of minor applicants may be processed by Passport Offices in India on production of self-attested Annexure 'C' or Annexure 'D', along with other required documents, as the case may be.
This service is provided by the Consulate as a facilitative measure for applicants who still wish to submit their documents through the Mission.
Documents Required
- Completed and signed Miscellaneous Consular Services application form.
- Annexure 'C' — Declaration by the applicant's parent or guardian for issue of passport to a minor when one parent has not given consent.
- Annexure 'D' — Declaration for minors under 18.
- Annexure 'E' — to be submitted by all applicants.
- Letter to RPO (Regional Passport Office).
- Payment proof — fee of NZ$21 (modes of payment).
- Coloured copy of the first and last pages of the current passport, attested by a Justice of the Peace.
- Copy of the current and valid New Zealand visa.
