Applicants to apply online for passports: Samangani

KABUL (Pajhwok): A government official said on Saturday from today, applicants can only apply online for obtaining passports.

Inamullah Samangani, deputy spokesman for the caretaker government, tweeted the decision had been taken to prevent overcrowding and avoid people facing problems.

The Passport Department website remained active, Samangani said, adding letters and paper applications would not be accepted.

Last week, a Pajhwok report quoted Passport Director Alam Gul Haqqani as saying a new online form had been designed, invalidating the previous one.
