Passport online payment system from July 5

Kochi: Passport online payment system will be implemented from July 5 onwards. Concerned zonal passport officers said that passport Seva Kendra under Kochi zone like Alappuzha, Kottayam, Kochi, Aluva, Thrissur and PSK under Kozhikode like West Hill, Vatakara, Kannur and Payyanur are ready with the new service. When one opts this service through website of the Ministry of External Affairs, the application fee should be remitted online at the time of booking appointments . 

With launch of online payment based appointments, applicants will be required to make payment at the time of booking appointment on the MEA website. With this, only genuine applicants will book the appointment and number of no-shows will reduce. Under the new process, payments can be made while booking an appointment on the website – ww.passportindia.gov.in either by Credit /Debit card (both Master and Visa) or internet Banking of State Bank of India. Applicants can also use the Challan option provided on the website and deposit the money in State Bank of India (SBI) branch after generating Challan online. In such cases, upon the confirmation of payment receipt by SBI in online system, applicants can take appointment. Further, instead of applicant choosing the date and time slot of appointment, system will automatically give earliest available appointment.
