Read our letter to President Obama before his upcoming trip to China here.
The Government of India has recently changed the passport rules and as a part of this change, we have been informed by the Bureau of His Holiness the Dalai Lama in New Delhi that:
1) Those Tibetans holding ICs (Identity Certificate), a yellow travel document, will have to return to India before the expiry of IC and the new ICs will be processed within a period of month.
2) The Indian missions abroad will continue to issue additional booklet (if visa sheets are exhausted) and also replace lost ICs as long as these are valid.

The Tibetan Community of New York & New Jersey
The Tibetan Community of New York & New Jersey (TCNYNJ) is a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit
organisation focused on supporting the survival of Tibetan culture and identity,
and to enhance the quality of life for all Tibetans living in the local community and
worldwide.
We offer our support of Tibetan-based educational, cultural and religious programs,
while also reaching out to community members in need. While we are committed to
building strong relationships within the Tibetan community through organizing events
that will allow members to connect and reach out to one another, we also embrace our
relationships outside the community through creating and organizing awareness campaigns.
In addition, we believe that:
- The continuity of Tibetan faith and identity is paramount.
- Tibet belongs to Tibetans, and is the home of Tibetan Buddhism and a zone
of peace.
- It is incumbent upon all Tibetans to help one another and to support the community
and its members must maintain the teachings of His Holiness
The Dalai Lama, with particular emphasis on kindness and compassion.
- We must appreciate and accept diversity in our community.
- It is important to generate awareness of Tibet’s dire situation and work tirelessly
to seek help from outside the community.
