I am a U.S. citizen. In August 2021, I entered India on an e-business visa, which expired in August 2022. I received an OCI card in May 2022, about two months after overstaying my e-business visa. I am planning to return to the U.S. soon. Will immigration authorities raise any issues due to the overstay, even though I now hold an OCI card?
Since you overstayed your visa before getting your OCI card, immigration may ask about it when you leave. Usually, if there’s no major violation, they will just charge a fine. To avoid any last-minute trouble, visit the local FRRO or immigration office before your departure and clear any dues. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
