Key Questions Answered
To update or link your mobile number to your passport, you must visit the official Passport Seva website at www.passportindia.gov.in and log into your account.
Failing to link your mobile number means you may miss important real-time alerts, notifications, and essential OTPs required for passport renewal, police verification, and delivery tracking. However, a passport will not be cancelled solely because a mobile number is unlinked.
After logging into the Passport Seva portal using your ID and password, navigate to 'My Profile' and select 'Contact Details'. Replace your old number with the new one, click 'Update', enter the 6-digit OTP sent to your phone, and complete the verification.
