The practice of issuing walk-in tokens at the Passport Seva Kendras at West Hill (Kozhikode), Vadakara, Kannur and Payyannur will be discontinued with effect from October 1.
The discontinuation of the existing process is on account of the noticeable improvement in availability of appointments for submission of passport applications through the passport portal. The online payment system was introduced from July this year and appointments were made available on the next day of registration.
