Regarding the lost indian passport and u.k visa

Post by ahmed1139 » Fri Mar 09, 2012 7:55 pm

Hi,

I am currently residing in u.k with work permit tier 2 visa, under the Indian passport.
I had lost my indian passport in u.k and i had re-applied it in indian embassy.

Once i get my new indian passport, is the replacement visa necessary for me to return to india ?
Is it possible to return to india, without having the u.k visa in the new passport ?

If you are comming back to the UK, then before you go, you should transfer your visa/leave from your missing passport to your new passport.

So if it is just for returning back to india, then only passport is sufficient ?

So there may be issues at the airport authorities while return, so it is always better to have the old visa transferred to the new passport ?
