OCI application documents confirmation

[beatallica]

Hello all, I am applying for OCI soon and just wanted to confirm the documents needed. I will be applying for myself only and have as "normal" a case as possible (moved to UK, working, got citizenship recently):

Documents required as I understand are as below. But on the website (http://in.vfsglobal.co.uk/OCI.html), they have another section for "Other necessary documents of Indian origin" which someone has told me is not necessary in my case (Domicile Cert / Birth Certificate / School leaving / agricultural documents). Can someone please confirm this? Many thanks

• - Application form
  - Cancelled Indian passport (original and self-attested photocopies of all used pages)
  - Surrender certificate
  - UK Naturalization certificate
  - British passport (they will look at the original and give it back to me on initial appointment I believe)

HI there

I am going to apply for OCI in a few days. I do not have my birth certificate and getting a new one issued will take ages. Did you submit your birth certificate?

Your response would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi

Please could you let me know if you have submitted any of the below for (Other necessary documents of Indian origin).

I don't have any of these and your inputs would be highly appreciated.

None of these are needed, if you producing original surrender certificate of Indian passport (not even your cancelled Indian passport).
So, the list just includes
1. Naturalization certificate
2. British Passport
3. Indian passport surrender certificate
4. Application form
5. Photos & Fee.
