Annexure D is Passport Seva's declaration by a minor applicant's parent or parents or legal guardian. The current official PDF says it is on plain paper. It is not required to be notarised or printed on ₹10 stamp paper merely because it is Annexure D. Download the latest specimen from passportindia.gov.in and use the version current on your appointment date. Complete the minor's name and date of birth and the parent or guardian details exactly as in the passport application and identity records. The current form provides identity-document options for each signatory and notes that a legal guardian must attach the court order appointing the guardian.

Why the distinction matters

Annexure D is used in normal minor-passport consent situations, but Passport Seva has separate rules for one-parent non-consent, custody, parents abroad and other special cases. Do not force a complex family situation into the normal form. Use the official Document Advisor and special-cases page for the actual facts.

Action checklist

  1. Open Passport Seva's Annexures page and download Annexure D directly from the official domain.
  2. Print it on plain paper. Do not add stamp paper or notarisation unless a separate, case-specific official requirement applies.
  3. Enter the minor's name and date of birth exactly as in the online application and birth proof.
  4. Complete each parent or guardian section with the identity details accepted in the current specimen and sign in the indicated places.
  5. If a legal guardian signs, attach the court order appointing the legal guardian as the form instructs.
  6. Carry the appointment receipt and original supporting documents selected by the official Document Advisor. For one-parent non-consent or custody issues, read the special-case route first.

Evidence file to keep

  • current Annexure D from Passport Seva
  • minor's application and ARN
  • date-of-birth proof
  • parent or guardian identity and address records required by Document Advisor
  • parent passports where applicable
  • legal-guardian court order where applicable

Escalate without losing the record

Use the service owner's written grievance route first and preserve its acknowledgement. Escalate only to the regulator, appellate authority, Commission or police route that applies to this issue. A telephone assurance is not a closure record. If a public authority holds the missing status, note, inspection report or reason, request that existing record precisely; RTI does not compel a desired service outcome.
