Passport

A No Objection Certificate (NOC) for issuance of a fresh passport may become relevant when an applicant is involved in pending criminal proceedings or faces restrictions that affect passport issuance. Depending on the circumstances, the applicant may need permission or an appropriate order from the concerned court before the passport authority processes the application. Courts generally consider factors such as the nature of the case, travel requirement, risk of absconding, and previous compliance with court directions. Obtaining the required permission and submitting accurate case details can help avoid unnecessary delays in the passport process.
