Surrendering the Indian passport and applying for OCI

Post by Duderico » Mon Jan 24, 2011 10:28 am

Hello Guys,

I will be soon surrendering my Indian passport and have a query. Can I surrender passport and apply for OCI on same day ?

Will I get the certificate of surrender on same day to apply for OCI ?

Please share your experience.

Thank you

Regards

No. You surrender passport at VFS and apply for OCI at HCI.

VFS - http://in.vfsglobal.co.uk/surenderind_pass.html
HCI - http://hcilondon.in/

Will I get the certificate of surrender on same day to apply for OCI ?
No. It takes up to 5 working days to get a surrender certificate after you surrender your passport.
