@cgisydney@MEAIndia@HCICanberra - Is it true that consular services in Canberra are better than Sydney ? I heard from staff at @cgisydney that Indian passport renewals are faster in Canberra over Sydney and you don't have to wait for more than 12 weeks.
Dear @cgisydney@MEAIndia@DrSJaishankar
More than 3 months since I applied for the passport renewal at Sydney through VFS - long time before the VFS chaos. Exact date 14 Apr. Is this a joke? What is point of consular services when then cannot manage the basic services?
CONSULAR / PASSPORT SERVICES:
Dear Applicant,
As VFS (the only outsourcing agent) is not in a position to engage with applications since 1st July 2026, in order to improve the service delivery and to expedite processing of consular/passport and related applications, applicants who are in an emergent situation to avail the services may kindly fill-in the form (link given below). This is will be applicable for applications submitted or completed on or before 30th June 2026.

Due to overwhelming number of email enquiries, sending the details over the FORM would help to clear the applications but over email.
By way of helping each other to expedite the process, please send your details only in the form (link given), only if it is beyond the prescribed processing time limit. For example (Average):
Fresh Passport - 8 weeks;
Reissue/renewal of Passport- 8 weeks;
Reissue of Passport (in lieu of lost or damaged passport)- 8 weeks to 16 weeks;
PCC- 4 weeks;
Surrender Certificate- 3 weeks;

Processing times mentioned do not include transit time by post/courier.
Before sending the form please check your application status at

Visited @cgisydney office today and got to know that from the staff that passport renewal application received on 15 April was only picked up on 4 July for processing. Very poor service. @MEAIndia please request you to please look into this.
@CPVIndia@MEAIndia their website also does not open. Why is that no one is questioning the consular services for such delays in the passport renewals?

@cgisydney Very nice initiative. How about improving the passport renewal times which are right now are more than 3 months. I am sure aam people will appreciate that over delicious aam's.
@cgisydney - Keen to know why does it take 2 months or more for the Indian passport renewal in Sydney when in other countries it happens within 3-4weeks. @passportsevamea. Applied mine around mid April and still no updates.

Just found this taken from δΊζε±± in March 2018, & u can see Taipei City is surrounded by mountains, Taipei 101 on the right, εηΈε±± in the middle. I used filters to edit the image & I like the texture. Will this be ideal for an upper arm #tattoo? π #Taiwan#hiking#Taipei
Ten yrs ago the noise & fumes of crackers would fill the Mumbai air a week before Diwali & for days thereafter. Today, on Diwali eve, I canβt hear the sound of a single cracker.Clearly, people(especially kids) are now respectful of the environment. Things DO change for the better
It is my honour to announce that the Siachen Glacier has now been opened to tourists. It was a long awaited move and the development of New Ladakh has now started with this.
