If your Indian passport is damaged due to issues like torn binding, exposure to rain, or drawings made by children, or if you have lost your passport and need a new one, you must complete the Annexure F form.
According to VFS instructions, it’s recommended to type out the information rather than sending handwritten documents. However, I’ve personally seen hundreds of annexures and affidavits filled out by hand with blue pen, and they were accepted, including my own when I renewed my passport in October 2023.
Discover how to effortlessly fill out Annexure F. Examples will help you complete the form accurately, from personal details to travel history, ensuring a smooth passport application process.
