FORM I - Issuing a new passport for children
Justice of the Peace or a Notary Public for Form I
If you're applying for a new Indian Passport from VFS for your child, one of the documents you must provide is a declaration known as FORM I. This document must be declared and signed by the child's parents in front of a justice of the peace or a notary public.
Using a justice of the peace is a free service - however, have you had problems in locating a justice of the peace?
If you can't find a justice of the peace, you can always use the services of a notary public. The difference between a justice of the peace for the purpose of FORM I is that while the justice of the peace is a free service, the notary public is not a free service.
If you need to apply for a new Indian Passport from VFS for your child, you can sign FORM I in front of a notary public if you cannot find a justice of the peace.
