Q.762 Passport details required

for OCI Application

Question: Hi, I have a question about OCI application. If this is the right link, please answer my question. When you fill part A in the online, there is a question asking about Passport details, So are they asking about your old Indian Passport or new Foreign passport. Thanks Answer: Passport details refers to your current passport number, the date and place of issue. So this would be your foreign passport that you currently hold. If prior to acquiring foreign nationality you held an Indian passport, then your old Indian passport details will be required under the documents that need to be submitted to prove your claim that you are of Indian origin and hence eligible for registration as an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI).
