Correct passport details
Bring this as a reminder when preparing for the official application or office visit.
1. Before submitting
- I identified exactly which detail needs correction.
- I checked the official data-correction pathway, not ordinary renewal.
- I will confirm supporting records with the office before submitting.
2. Documents to prepare or confirm
“Official guidance” = supported by a cited authority; “Confirm” = a preparation suggestion, not an established mandatory requirement.
- Application PDF with barcode and QR code (In official guidance)
- Original citizenship or minor identity card (In official guidance)
- National Identity Card or NIN (check exceptions for minors) (In official guidance)
- Payment receipt or bank voucher (In official guidance)
- Original current or previous passport (In official guidance)
- Evidence for the specific correction requested (Confirm with office)
3. Field cross-check reminders
Do not write identity numbers, passwords or other personal details on this sheet. Compare privately with original records and the official portal.
Data modification
Compare with: Original identity documents and the passport authority’s correction route.
Avoid: Repeating a spelling or birth-date error without checking the correction process.
Personal details
Compare with: Your original citizenship or eligible identity record and existing passport, where applicable.
Avoid: Copying an earlier typo into a new application.
Issuing office or mission
Compare with: The official office or Nepali mission responsible for this application.
Avoid: Assuming every office has the same documents, appointments or fees.
4. Confirm your office or programme
- In Nepal (regular): apply through the DAO/AAO associated with your citizenship or minor ID.
- Urgent in Nepal: check fast-track service with the Department of Passports in Tripureshwor.
- Abroad: choose the responsible Nepali embassy or consulate; documents and fees may differ.
