What is the passport online login and registration process?

Passports are essential travel documents for those travelling abroad for education, pilgrimage, tourism, business, medical care or family visits. Passports and related services have seen a significant increase in demand in recent years due to the expanding economy and globalisation. This increased demand led to the launch of the Passport Seva Project (PSP) in May 2010 by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).

Passport Seva provides simple, efficient, and transparent services for the delivery of passports and related documents. In this project, the government has created a countrywide networked environment for staff and integrated with the state police for physical verification of credentials and with India Post for passport delivery.

The process of registering for a passport and obtaining a login has been simplified since the online facility was introduced. By following the procedures below, you will be able to complete the entire procedure within a few minutes.
