Dear client based on your query, To apply for a renunciation certificate without the original Indian passport, you can still proceed using the US passport and a notarized affidavit explaining the loss or unavailability of the original Indian passport. Since you have copies of his Indian passport and naturalization certificate, you should include those as supporting documents, for further detailed discussion feel free to contact us.

Renunciation of US citizenship is a formal process where an individual voluntarily gives up their US citizenship. It's a serious and irrevocable decision, and the individual must understand the consequences before proceeding. The process generally involves completing a form (DS-4079) and an in-person interview at a US embassy or consulate, where the individual signs the oath of renunciation.
