Voter ID

Is voter id mandatory for passport

No, a Voter ID is not mandatory for a passport application, but it is one of the valid documents you can use. To apply for a passport, you must provide proof of identity, address, and date of birth. While a Voter ID (EPIC) can serve all three purposes, you can alternatively provide other documents such as:
  • Aadhaar Card or e-Aadhaar
  • PAN Card
  • Driving License
  • Birth Certificate
  • Utility bills (Electricity, Water, or Gas)
  • Bank Passbook with a photograph
As long as you have other acceptable documents, a Voter ID is not strictly required.
