Embassy tells Indians to get machine-readable passports
Abu Dhabhi - Those Indians holding handwritten passports are advised to urgently replace them with machine-readable passports, the embassy said.
The Indian Embassy on Sunday issued an advisory regrading phasing out of handwritten passports.
Those Indians holding handwritten passports are advised to urgently replace them with machine-readable passports, the embassy said.
According to the advisory, foreign governments may deny visa or entry to any person travelling on a non-machine readable passport.
Therefore, Indians in the UAE are advised to apply for machine readable passports to avoid any inconvenience in obtaining valid visa or for international travel, the embassy said.
Indian government has been issuing machine readable passports since 2001. However, handwritten passports issued during mid-1990s with a validity of 20 years will fall in the category requiring replacement.
In the past too the embassy has informed Indians on the need to replace the handwritten passports.
