If you’re in a hurry to get a passport — for a job interview abroad, emergency travel, or visa appointment — this guide will help you understand the fastest way to get a passport in Bihar.
At Bihar Advocates Club, we’ve helped many individuals and families apply for both Normal and Tatkal passports successfully. Here’s a clear breakdown of both processes so you can choose what’s best for you.
What Are the Two Main Passport Options in Bihar?
1. Normal Passport
Standard processing time: 20–25 working days
Includes police verification before passport issuance
Suitable if there’s no urgency
2. Tatkal Passport
Fast-track process: 3–7 working days
Police verification is done after passport is issued
Designed for urgent or emergency travel needs
Documents Required for Both
Common Documents:
Aadhar Card (as ID + address proof)
PAN Card or 10th Marksheet (for date of birth)
Voter ID, utility bill, or bank passbook (for address proof)
Passport-size photos
Annexure F (for Tatkal, signed by Gazetted Officer)
Self-declaration or Annexure I
📌 Tip: Ensure your name, date of birth, and address match across all documents.
Passport Fees in 2025
