Annexure-C for single parents, who are separated but not formally divorced/single parent of the child, born from the wedlock. Single parents applying for passport for their child Annexures-C or G, as the case would be have to be filled up. Table-2 appended to the aforesaid schedule deals with list of applicant categories and documents to be submitted. Case No.B (9) therein deals with parents separated but not divorced. Clause (11) of Case No.B deals with application filed by one parent/guardian when consent of one or both parents is not possible. The said clause reads as follows:

"Chapter-9 in 3.4 (b) that "both the parents should sign in Annexure-D in fresh or re-issue cases. (Both parents shall be present at the PSK while applying or passport for their minor children on one parent with passports of both the parents may be present".

3.4(c). "If Annexure-D is not signed by both the parents, a single parent must submit a declaration in the form in Annexure-C stating the reasons, except, in cases where the single parent has got full custody of the child without visitation rights for the spouse. In case divorce proceedings are pending, court permission is required for issue of passport to a minor child."

4.7. Single divorced parent with exclusive custody of child without visitation rights for the other parent: Where the custody of the child has been given exclusively to either parent, without any visitation rights to other parent, the question of obtaining consent of the other parent would normally not arise. A certified copy of the court order has to be submitted with the application and Annexure-C signed by the single parent."
