❓ Frequently Asked Questions — Name Correction in Passport
How long does name correction in passport take?▼
Name correction follows standard reissue timelines — 30 to 45 working days under normal processing and 1 to 3 working days under Tatkal. Police verification is required so plan your timeline accordingly.
My name is spelled differently on Aadhaar and Class 10 — which spelling is correct for passport?▼
We assess your legal documents carefully — typically Class 10 certificate and birth certificate hold primacy as they were issued earliest. We then advise on aligning all other documents to that legally correct spelling.
Can I book a flight before correcting my passport name?▼
Not recommended. If your airline ticket name does not exactly match your passport name — airlines can deny boarding. Always correct passport name before booking any international flights or applying for visas.
Is Tatkal available for name correction?▼
Yes — Tatkal is available for name correction reissue. Strongly recommended if you have upcoming travel within 30 days that depends on the corrected name.
What if my name is spelled differently in English and Hindi on different documents?▼
This is a common issue especially for documents issued in UP, Bihar and other Hindi-speaking states. We assess each case individually and advise the best approach to standardise spelling across all documents before PSK application.
