I am in UAE now. I have a valid Visa for the next 2 years. My passport is valid till 17th December 2024. I applied for the renewal of my passport on 29th July on Tatkal. They mentioned i would receive in 3 days. Today is the 13th day. I went to the consulate and enquired they said the regional passport office had withheld my passport application due to an adverse report on my passport. I have been convicted in a cheque bounce case. Is it because of that?

if you have been convicted in cheque bouncing case you should file appeal and obtain stay order
2)because of your conviction there may be an adverse report on your passport
3) better apply for compounding of offence before sessions court
Find out the reason and give an explanation to the show cause notice issued by the passport authorities in this regard and writ a letter with evidence to prove that the so called adverse reports are false and you have evidence to establish the same.
If possible you may visit the Indian embassy of that country in person and record your explanation in writing.
The police verification report might have reflected this adverse report in their report about you when the matter was referred
Have you got discharged from the criminal case on an appeal or have you completed the sentence of imprisonment as per the court judgment, if so, then you can enclose the authenticated documents to support your statements and submit a request letter to the passport authorities to consider your application for reissue of your passport.
- Yes, there is chances that the police has submitted negative report due to conviction in the cheque bouncing case.
- However, as per the Supreme Court , renewal of passport cannot be refused merely on the ground of pendency of criminal case or appeal.
- Hence, if you have been convicted in the cheque bounce case , then you can file an appeal before the higher Court.
- Further, if you have not mentioned in the application for getting new passport , then on the negative police report , the passport may be withheld.
Dear Client,
Your passport renewal has been withheld due to an adverse report, which is likely connected to your conviction in a cheque bounce case. Your current passport remains valid until 17th December 2024, so you can legally stay in the UAE until then. However, the renewal issue must be resolved to avoid complications after the expiry date. Reach out to the Regional Passport Office directly to inquire about the specific reasons for the adverse report and request guidance on how to resolve it. If possible, obtain a clearance from the court where the cheque bounce case was adjudicated, stating that you have complied with all court orders. In some cases, providing an affidavit or undertaking regarding your legal situation might be required by the RPO to process your passport renewal. If your passport renewal is not resolved before its expiration and you urgently need to travel, you can apply for an Emergency Certificate (EC) from the Indian consulate.
