UAE Indian Passport Rules Changed 2026: New Appointment System, Fees, Walk-In Rules, Renewal Process

The process for Indian passport renewal and consular services in the UAE has changed significantly. From July 22, 2026, Alhind Tours & Travels has taken over the operation of Indian Consular Application Centres (ICACs), bringing a new appointment-based system, flat service fees, updated walk-in rules, and the removal of the premium queue facility. In this video, we explain the latest UAE Indian passport rules, who needs an online appointment, who can still use walk-in services, the new service charges, passport renewal costs, Tatkal passport rules, and what applicants should keep in mind before visiting an ICAC centre. We also explain what the rules actually say, why passport approval still depends on the Indian Embassy and Consulate, and why the promised 30-minute service only applies to application submission—not passport issuance.
