Hi ,

I need information / guidance from Indian on Indian Passport marked with " ECR required " .

I am joining a company in Oman on Employment visa as "Manager " with family status .

Recently I have renewed my son's Indian Passport and Passport dept has issued my son's Passport with " ECR required " .

Since my son has not passed 10+ exam till now , Indian Passport dept has issued Passport with " ECR required " comment as per rule of Indian Govt.

Will the Immigration dept. at Indian Airport stop the journey of my son who will travel to Oman from India with family visa after few months ?

Pl inform me if you have proper knowledge / experience on this subject

Regards ,

R. Das

If your passport is issued with "ECR" required, then your son's passport also will be issued with "ECR" required. If your passport is issued with "ECRN", then passport department will issue to your son accordingly. You can approach passport department for corrections.

Yes. There is a possibility to stop at the airport. You have to apply immediately to the passport office to get it "ECNR".

Thanks for your reply .

Do you have experience of converting Indian Passport from ECR to ECNR for child ( age 15 to 18 years ) ?
