I couldn't be any happier than hearing news of electronic version. I had always been against the concept of having an additional booklet, preferred having a sticker in passport instead. Now they talk of having none of them.

I hope this gets implemented quickly. I'll apy for e-oci as soon as it's available. I can see so many merits of this move:

  1. Less things to carry (esp if travelling as a family)

  2. Ability to go India from anywhere during emergency as opposed to flying back home country to pick it up (no I don't carry oci when travelling anywhere ex india)

  3. Single route of application, no longer having to deal with VFS/BLS

Let's see how the implementation works and the reap the benefits.
