Does an OCI visa last for life / forever?
While your OCI Visa will last a lifetime there are some record upkeeps you will have to do. (Take OCI lasting for a lifetime with some caution – India and its bureaucratic process is a constantly changing beast that can change with Governments – Think PIO Visa – again meant to last forever, now defunct).
To keep your OCI Lifetime records in order, the OCI registration Certificate and visa have to be re-issued in some cases and a
Renewal of OCI is required when:
- A new OCI Renewal will be required everytime you renew your passport and your OCI documents will have to be re-issued and payment of appropriate fee is required.
- Once the OCI Holder turns 50 years old you will have to re-issue your OCI under miscellaneous services.
- When you are between the ages of 21 and 50, you will not have to get your documents re-issued. We have been told that if you travel to India you would simply carry your own old PASSPORT with your new passport which will show the OCI number matching with the old passport.
- We would recommend always renewing it as a matter of convenience, however a small appropriate fee will be due for OCI renewal.
- Once you get your NEW OCI, then the requirement to carry your previous passport will not be required as the OCI 'U' visa will be stamped on your new passport.
Got your OCI at aged 50? No need to renew OCI after age 50
While your OCI will have to be renewed by those who obtained their OCI visa prior the age of 50 years old, you will not be required to get your first OCI visa if you were already 50 years or above when you first got your OCI.
