You see a small box icon on your Indian passport cover. Most people miss it.

This symbol means your passport is an e-passport. It contains an embedded electronic chip.

The chip stores your personal data and biometric information. This technology makes travel easier for you.

How it helps you:

• It speeds up immigration checks at airports.
• It prevents identity theft and fraud.
• It makes your document harder to fake.

The chip works with scanners at border control. This allows for faster processing during your trips.

Next time you hold your passport, look for the tiny gold icon. It represents your digital identity in a physical book.
