Document checklist
FRRO registration and residence permits for expatriates
Tick each item as you collect it. Where a document is issued outside India, we will tell you whether it needs notarisation or apostille before it can be filed.
- Passport and visa; arrival stamp; passport-size photographs
- Employment contract / assignment letter; employer's undertaking and sponsorship letter; company incorporation certificate and PAN
- Proof of residence in India (registered lease + landlord ID, or hotel booking + Form C) and Indian mobile/email
- For dependants: marriage/birth certificates (apostilled where required)
Typical timeline: 1–3 weeks from submission, subject to the FRRO's appointment and verification schedule. Government processing times vary.
