Your e-OCI, always in your pocket.
Keep a personal copy of your e-OCI, the digital Overseas Citizen of India document, on your phone — an easy-to-read card, with the original PDF one tap away. Even with no signal.
Independent app — not a Government of India service.
Find it in seconds
No digging through email or Files. Open, tap, and it’s there — even with no signal.
Opens only for you
Unlocks with your fingerprint, face or PIN. Nobody else gets in.
Never leaves your phone
Encrypted on your device. No account, no cloud, no servers.
The whole family, one app
A card for everyone you travel with. Swipe from one to the next.
Not an official document. AirPocket is an independent app by A&Y Partners. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or approved by the Government of India, the Ministry of Home Affairs or any Indian mission. Always carry the documents your airline and the authorities require.
From PDF to card in three steps.
- Download your e-OCI PDF from the Government of India’s OCI Services portal.
- Open it in AirPocket — tap Add e-OCI, or share it to the app from Gmail, WhatsApp or Files.
- Check the details, save, and your card is ready — locked and available offline.
Everything clear, at a glance.
Easy to read
Your photo, name, OCI number and passport number up front, in large clear type — the details you need most, first.
Every detail, organised
Personal details, family names and address in clear sections, with the barcode and the “verify online” QR code below.
Original PDF, one tap away
Open your e-OCI exactly as issued, with pinch to zoom.
Share the PDF when asked
Airline check-in or a visa form wants your e-OCI? Share the original PDF straight from the app.
QR code, enlarged
Tap the QR code to show it full screen with the screen turned up bright, ready to scan.
The QR codes are copied from your e-OCI exactly as issued — the app never makes them up. AirPocket doesn’t check whether an e-OCI is valid; only the authorities can do that.
Everyone you travel with, in one place.
First card free
Add your own e-OCI at no cost — every feature included.
One-time Family Pack
Add cards for your partner, children and parents with a single purchase. No subscription.
Swipe between cards
Swipe from one family member’s card to the next.
Your order, your way
Press and hold a card to move it — put whoever you need first at the top.
Locked. Encrypted. Yours alone.
Your e-OCI holds some of your most personal details. It never leaves your phone.
Your fingerprint is the key
AirPocket opens with your fingerprint, face or PIN. Lose your phone, and your cards stay locked.
Encrypted on your phone
Every card and PDF is encrypted with a key that stays locked inside your phone.
Nothing stored anywhere else
No account, no servers, no cloud copy. There is nowhere for your e-OCI to go.
- No account or sign-up
- Five wrong PINs in a row erase every card from the phone
- No internet needed to open, unlock or show your cards
- Screenshots blocked on card screens
- Left out of phone backups
- No ads, no analytics, no tracking
Good to know.
Is AirPocket an official Government of India app?
No. It’s an independent app by A&Y Partners, an Australian company. It isn’t affiliated with, endorsed by or approved by the Government of India or any Indian mission.
Does the app upload my e-OCI?
No. Your e-OCI is read and stored on your phone only, encrypted. The app has no accounts and no servers, so there is nowhere to upload it to.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Opening, unlocking and showing your cards and the original PDF all work in flight mode.
Does the QR code prove my OCI is valid?
No. The QR codes are copied from your e-OCI as issued. The app doesn’t check identity, document validity or travel eligibility — only the authorities can.
Can I use the card instead of my e-OCI?
No. It’s a personal copy for convenience. Always carry what your airline and the authorities require.
What happens when I change phones?
Cards are deliberately left out of backups. Install the app on your new phone and add your e-OCI PDF again. A Family Pack comes back through Google Play or the App Store when you’re signed in with the same Google account or Apple Account.
