India has announced eased rules for Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) cardholders who have obtained new passports.
Key Points:
Analysis & Comments: Overall, the changes will ease administrative burdens for OCI cardholders, although some will still be required to upload copies of their new passports online. OCI cardholders who have obtained an OCI card because of a marriage to an Indian national will additionally be required to declare that their marriage remains valid each time they receive a new passport. The government has not yet launched the web portal where copies of passports will be uploaded, but is expected to do so soon.
