Hello Friends,

I am a US Citizen and am in the processing of applying for PIO Card.

How do I notify the Indian embassy that I would like relinquish my Indian passport.

Thanks, Anil
 
I asked the indian consulate. They replied that the person needs to enclose

1. Indian Passport (all passports in possession).
2. Completed Indian citizenship renunciation form (Form XVII).
3. Copy of US passport or Certificate of Naturalization (to make sure that you don't become stateless).
4. Pre-paid priority mail envelope (or $20 money order for mailing charges).

Just curious why are you appllying for PIO. I thought OCI had "better" benfits.

Also I think you can get your passport "canceled" by indian consulate during OCI proocssing at no additional cost.

Just a suggestion.
