      HI Vikam, thank you for the information. Have you been able to travel on your current OCI card after age 50 without renewing it? I am just wondering if I can travel without a renewal. Thank you.

    I have renewed my OCI card to change my address as I have shifted to a new place. For the renewal process, I have visited the official website of the OCI portal and filled out an online application by entering all the details correctly. I have submitted all the updated information documents, and after my application was approved on the portal, I received a confirmation email stating confirmation of the changes made to the OCI application.

    To apply for an OCI renewal application, you should gather all the necessary documents for the application, your current passport, your old OCI card, photos, valid Identity proof to change name in the OCI card, and proof of address to change address in the OCI card.

    An OCI cardholder can change his or her details in the OCI card after 50 years, but in general, it is not necessary to update the OCI card. But if you want to, then you can apply for OCI card renewal from the OCI miscellaneous services and fill out an online application form with all the supporting documents and change your details, address, or anything on the OCI card.

    The processing time to renew your OCI card after 50 years depends on the application details and volume of applications. If there are high number of applications the your OCI renewal application might take more days to process.
