OCI card photo: light background, not white

The OCI portal at ociservices.gov.in specifies a plain light-coloured background (not pure white) — off-white, light grey, or light blue. This is the opposite of the Indian passport and e-Visa rules, which require white. Using white may trigger rejection.

Face coverage: 80% of the frame

The OCI portal expects the face to fill at least 80% of the frame — more than most other documents. Standard passport photos with extra background fail this check.

Signature image: the 1:3 aspect ratio that trips everyone

OCI requires a separate signature image with a strict 1:3 height-to-width ratio. Acceptable examples: 200x67, 600x200, 900x300, up to 1500x500 pixels. JPEG, plain white paper, dark ink, scan or photo of your handwritten signature — typed signatures are rejected.

Photo digital spec

Square JPEG, 200x200 to 1500x1500 pixels, under 500 KB. Re-issuance is mandatory after age 20 and after age 50 — for ages 21–50 it's optional.
