Common questions about eligibility, documents, timelines, and renewal.
You may be eligible if you were an Indian citizen on or after 26 January 1950, were eligible for Indian citizenship at that time, or are the child/grandchild of such a person. Foreign spouses of Indian citizens or OCI holders may also qualify under certain conditions. We offer a free eligibility check to be sure.
Timelines vary by consulate and country, but typically 4–8 weeks after submission. Our Full Assistance and Premium packages include real-time tracking, and we proactively follow up to minimise delays.
OCI cards are valid for life, but re-issuance is required after a new passport is issued (for applicants aged 20 and above) and after the age of 50. For minors, re-issuance is needed each time a new passport is issued. We handle both fresh applications and re-issuance/renewal.
Yes — OCI is designed for foreign nationals of Indian origin. You must hold a valid foreign passport, and your Indian citizenship should have been surrendered (we can assist with the Surrender of Indian Passport service if needed).
Don't worry — our team will review everything up front and tell you exactly what's missing. In many cases we can suggest alternative documents or affidavits to support your application, so you're never left guessing.
