Hi,

Today I got certification of registration for my 6 years old son. Thanks everyone on this forum.

Now I have to apply for his British passport and have to send his two old ( Indian ) passports with the application.

Do I need to surrender his Indian passports ( to Indian High Commission ) after I receive them back with his British passport?

Please advise.

Regards & Thanks

The Indian Passport needs to be surrendered to the IHC through VFS as India does not allow dual citizenship.

Thank you very much push and noble72.

I have gone through the relevant link and http://hcilondon.in/renunciation.php
things are very clear now..

Only one thing, Do I need to send both Indian passports of my son ( one expired and one current ) along with the application of British Passport?

Do they send these ( Indian ) passports back along with the British passports?

Thanks again.
