Indian passport renewal in Hayes

Where a Hayes application goes

Hayes is in the London consular jurisdiction, so an application from UB3 and UB4 goes to the High Commission of India in London. Where a visit is needed, it is at a visa application centre in London, run by VFS Global. We book the appointment and tell you which centre it is before you travel.

What goes wrong most often

• Submitting a photo that does not meet current Passport Seva specifications.
• Using out-of-date address proof — usually within the last three months is required.
• Selecting Tatkal when normal service would suffice — and vice versa.
• Booking VFS in the wrong jurisdiction for your postcode.
• Missing self-attestation on photocopies.
