ECNR Bahrain

Viewed 10499

Dear Pankaj,

Very happy to see spontaneous reply from you for all questions. Request a help from you. I have got a job in Bahrain & in my passport ‘Emigration Status’ page has a ‘Deleted’ stamp on it & the next page has the same words (‘Deleted’ page wordings) stamped & signed by Regional Passport Officer. Have attached an image for your reference.(http://img1.imagehousing.com/72/46a2a59a1efdb008c95889d76fa1410f.jpg) alt text

Please let me know if I will have to get an ECNR. If yes,

1) Do I have to get it from the Passport office (Chennai) 2) Will I be able to get it on the same day. 3) I don’t have any residence proof currently, as I had just recently shifted to Coimbatore. Is it possible to get it done in person & take back the passport in person.

Request your help on the same.

Thanks, Rakesh

As you are going to Bahrain for job, you would need an ECNR stamp before leaving India.

There have been some changes in process and now-a-days renewed passport is being issued rather than ECNR stamping on old passport. I would advice you to visit local passport office and inquire about same.

If older process of ECNR is followed, you would need residential proof (should be of a city which comes under passport office you are visiting) and ECNR eligibility proof.
