EMERGENCY TRAVEL DOCUMENT |
|
GUIDELINES AND INSTRUCTIONS An Emergency Certificate (one-way travel document), which authorizes an Indian citizen to enter India, is issued to individuals who have lost their passports or their passports have been stolen or damaged and to whom new passports cannot be issued without approval from India. This document is issued primarily with the objective of ensuring the applicant’s return to India in an emergency. Applicants should fill in the application form as prescribed for the issue of a new passport and seek a personal interview with the Consular Officer whose decision will be final. In case of applicants under deportation or under orders of deportation, the application should be submitted through the Deportation Officer from the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement/Department of Homeland Security. The Emergency Certificate will be delivered to the above mentioned agencies and not to an agent or third party.
