The NRKs who are either residing or working abroad for atleast 6 months and have completed 18 years of age are eligible for applying the card. The validity of the card is 3 years. The NRKs may submit their application along with the self attested copies of the relevant pages of passport and visa. The registration fee is Rs. 300/- per person.
