OCI Card Photo — Same Specs, Same Guarantee
Create your India OCI Card photo at home in under 3 minutes. AI-powered crop, background removal, and compliance check — all verified against official India government requirements.
OCI (Overseas Citizen of India) card photos use a 51×51mm square format with a light-colored background (cream or off-white — not pure white). Applications filed through ociservices.gov.in require a digital JPEG upload under 200 KB with equal width and height.
The most common OCI photo rejection is submitting an Indian passport photo (35×45mm rectangle) instead of the required 51×51mm square. VFS Global and BLS International centres check this on the spot — if your photo is the wrong shape, you'll need to leave and come back.
If your OCI application photo is rejected, you typically get 21 days to submit a corrected version. Missing this deadline can mean losing your application fee. PhotoPass generates the exact OCI specification — correct dimensions, light cream background, and file size under 200 KB — so you get it right the first time.
