Details on birth certificate for OCI

Post by Comrade10 » Tue Dec 13, 2016 1:20 am

Dear friends ,

As I read on the vfs website that I would need a my birth certificate to apply for OCI , I have got made one for me . However on reading the guidance notes again on the website I found that it says that the birth certificate should also have the name of the registrar who has signed it and also his contact number for verification . Now my birth certificate has the seal and signature of the registrar , but his name and contact number are not mentioned on it . So I am wondering whether the VFS and high commission of India would accept my birth certificate or will they insist on getting these details . I am not sure that it would be possible even to get these details on the birth certificate , I mean I don't know whether the registrar would agree to provide his name and contact number on the certificate . I am quite worried because of this .
Could you please advise me as to what is the best course of action for me in this situation .

Many thanks

Submit your surrender certificate. If you dont have one, submit your 10th grade certificate

Thanks for your advice . I will get my surrender certificate soon . So just to confirm you are advising me to submit my surrender certificate and my 10th grade marksheet . In other words instead of birth certificate I should rather submit my 10th grade marksheet along with the surrender certificate ?
Please could you confirm .

Many thanks
