To apply for a new birth certificate, you typically need to visit the local municipal corporation or registrar's office in the place of birth. You will need to fill out an application form, provide identification documents for parents, and submit proof of birth such as hospital records. The exact process and required documents may vary by region.

For a Non Availability of Birth Certificate (NABC), you will generally need an affidavit from parents stating the date and place of birth, school leaving certificate, passport copies of parents, and any other supporting documents like hospital records or voter ID. A local inquiry may also be conducted by the authorities. Please refer to our detailed guide for a complete checklist.

Spouses of Indian citizens or OCI cardholders may also be eligible under certain conditions.

The processing time for an OCI card application can vary significantly depending on the country of application, the completeness of the documents, and verification processes. Generally, it can take anywhere from 8 to 12 weeks, but in some cases, it might extend up to 3-4 months. It is advisable to apply well in advance of any travel plans.

In many regions, you can initiate the application for a birth certificate online, or at least download the necessary forms and find information about the required documents. However, physical submission of documents and verification might still be required at the local registrar's office. Please check your specific state or municipal website for online application availability.

OCI cardholders enjoy multiple entry, multi-purpose lifelong visa to visit India, exemption from registration with Foreigners Regional Registration Officer (FRRO) for any length of stay in India, parity with Non-Resident Indians (NRIs) in respect of all facilities available to them in economic, financial and educational fields, except in matters relating to acquisition of agricultural or plantation properties.

If there are errors on your birth certificate, you need to apply for a correction. This usually involves submitting an application form, an affidavit stating the correct details, and supporting documents (e.g., school records, parent's ID) that prove the correct information. The process is handled by the same authority that issued the original certificate.

For OCI cardholders who obtained the card before turning 20, it is mandatory to re-issue the OCI card once after attaining the age of 20 years. If the OCI card was obtained after the age of 20, re-issuance is not required upon passport renewal. However, it is advisable to upload a copy of the new passport and a recent photograph online on the OCI portal each time a new passport is issued up to the age of 20 years, and once after completing 50 years of age.
