New Passport Rules In India: In a move to ease the passport application process, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has rolled out a new provision to allow citizens to add their spouse's name to their passport without the need for a marriage certificate. This move aim to reduce the burden on married couples throughout India.

The new passport update introduces a joint photo declaration, known as Annexure J, which can be submitted as an alternative to a marriage certificate. This change streamlines the process for couples, especially in regions where formal marriage registration is not common. Earlier, couples without a registered marriage certificate faced delays or rejection when trying to update their marital status on passports.

After India's new immigration bill passes the Parliament test, anyone caught using a fake passport or visa to enter, remain, or leave India will face a prison sentence of up to seven years and a fine of up to Rs 10 lakh, news agency PTI reported on March 16. This legislation, brought by the Union Home Ministry, mandates that hotels, universities, educational institutions, hospitals, and nursing homes report information about foreigners to help monitor those who overstay their visas.
