The Indian passport service portal will be temporarily unavailable for four days due to technical maintenance, according to the Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi. The portal will remain inaccessible from 6:30 pm on September 20, Friday, until 4:30 am on September 24, Monday.
During this period, passport and related services, including emergency 'Tatkaal' passports and police clearance certificates, will not be provided at the Embassy or any of the BLS International centres from September 20 to September 22. Individuals with appointments scheduled for September 21 will be rescheduled to dates between September 23 and September 27. If the new appointment date is inconvenient, applicants can visit any BLS centre after their rescheduled date and submit their passport application as a walk-in without the need for a separate appointment.
Other consular and visa services will continue to be available at all BLS centres across the UAE on September 21, the Indian Embassy in Abu Dhabi added.
