Minor and newborn passports in Pune
A passport for a child under eighteen is filed by the parents, with consent annexures signed by both. We check the birth certificate and the parents’ documents, prepare the annexures and book the appointment so the whole family can attend together.
What a child’s passport needs
The application is made in the child’s name but rests entirely on the parents’ documents and their consent. Where one parent cannot sign, a different annexure applies, and choosing the right one is most of the work.
Usually asked for
Both parents, or the right annexure
Where both parents consent, both sign the annexure and both sets of documents go on the file. Where a parent is unavailable, separated or deceased, a different annexure applies and the supporting document changes with it. Tell us the situation plainly and we will draft the right one.
Travelling as a family
Most families come to us with more than one application at a time. Filing them together means one document check, one visit and one person tracking every file.

How your file moves
The same four steps for a newborn’s first passport as for any other application.
Talk to us
Call, message on WhatsApp or walk into the Somwar Peth office. Tell us what you need and we will list out which documents apply to your specific case.
Document check
Every proof is verified before anything is submitted. This is where most applications go wrong, so this is where we spend the most time.
Filing and appointment
We complete the application, pay the government fee and book the earliest slot available to us at that time.
Visit and delivery
You are briefed on what happens at each counter. We then track the file and update you until it is done.
What you pay
Two separate amounts, always told to you before we begin. Nothing is added later.
What we can and cannot control
Processing time, police verification and the final decision rest entirely with the Regional Passport Office. What we take responsibility for is a complete and correctly documented application, and a clear update from us at every stage.
Applying for your child’s passport?
Send a photo of the birth certificate and both parents’ passports on WhatsApp. We will confirm the annexure, the documents and the government fee before you commit.
