The  PSP  V2.0  would  ensure  a  digital ecosystem  among  all  stakeholders  and  offering  passport  services  to  all  citizens  closer  to  their doorsteps.

The  salient  features  and  key changes/improvements  in  PSP  V2.0  are  facial  and  Bio-metric  matching  solution,  integration  of Passport Seva System with Aadhaar, UIDAI ,Seamless Service Delivery to India Diaspora, Chatbot, Leveraging of Emerging Technologies, Use of Robotic Process Automation (RPA), Use of Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Launch of ePassport.
