Hello members

We received our daughter and son's naturalization certificate and we processed for their British passports, My query is that once we received there British passports. As me and my wife hold Indian passport with Indefinite, Do we have to get a visa for my son and daughter to travel to India and before we travel should we surrender there Indian passports(son & daughter) If so how long would it take for the process as we want to travel in may.

Shall we apply for PIO or OCI or Visa.

or what would be the process.

Many thanks

yes once they get their british passports they need to surrender their indian passports and apply for surrender certificate and then apply for PIO.

They are not eligible for OCI until parents are foriegn nationals i.e in your case british nationals.
