Questions Answered
OCI Card FAQs 2026
What is an OCI Card and do I need one?
OCI (Overseas Citizen of India) is a lifelong multiple-entry visa document for people of Indian origin living abroad. It allows you to live, work and travel to India freely without a separate visa. If you are of Indian origin and hold a foreign passport, you almost certainly qualify and should apply.
How long does OCI Card processing take in the USA?
OCI Card processing typically takes 8–12 weeks from your BLS appointment date. San Francisco consulate may take up to 14 weeks. During peak season (June–August) add 2–4 weeks. We recommend applying 4–6 months before your travel date.
Do I need to renew my OCI Card?
The OCI Card itself is lifelong but you must update it when you get a new passport IF you are under 20 years old OR above 50 years old. This is because photos and biometrics change significantly at these ages. If you are between 20–50, your OCI Card is valid with your old passport even after getting a new passport.
My old Indian passport is lost. Can I still apply?
Yes — there are alternatives when the old Indian passport is not available. This is one of the most common situations we handle. Book a free consultation and we will guide you through exactly what alternative documents to use.
How much does OCI Card cost in USA 2026?
Total cost = IndiaDocsUSA service fee ($149+) + Indian government fee (~$275 for adults). We tell you the exact total during your free consultation. No hidden fees — ever.
I have an old PIO card. What should I do?
PIO cards are no longer valid for travel to India as of 2015! You must convert to OCI immediately. The conversion process is similar to a new OCI application. We handle PIO to OCI conversions regularly — contact us today.
