About Hyderabad Passport Office
The Hyderabad Passport Office was started in 1976. It was separated from the Passport Office in Madras in order to cater to the needs of the public of Andhra Pradesh. Initially, the Regional Passport Office in Hyderabad was functioning at a small scale. However, the growing work pressure led to an impressive increase in its staff strength and eventually it became the second largest office in India after Mumbai office.
