OCI renewal, age 20, documents

Post by nmehta » Tue Sep 16, 2025 11:56 am

Hi all, I have an appointment at VFS Goswell in a couple of days for renewal of OCI (paid service) as my daughter's UK passport has changed. The upload section within online application had only 3 documents in the drop down - old passport, new passport and the current OCI. I have uploaded all of this.

What documents are required to be taken to the VFS to complete the application. The HCI guidance has a lot of documents mentioned in the new OCI application section but what all is needed for renewal after passport change and age 20.

Do we also need to take photo?

Can someone who has recently applied please confirm.

Thanks

Can someone who has recently applied please confirm. Renewal process is different to new OCI process. Please carry the documents which you have uploaded

Thanks

That's perfect, thank you and it makes sense.

By any chance is there any link or official guidance which states the specific documentation for paid OCI renewal application submission?

Would be good to keep it handy just in case VFS causes trouble. I am really very close to my travel date and can't afford to mess up this appointment.
