Why it matters
Anyone in India who hosts a foreign guest for payment, even for a few hours, must submit Form C (now called Form-III) on the Bureau of Immigration's portal, indianfrro.gov.in, within 24 hours of arrival. Since the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025, this includes guests with OCI cards. Hosts who repeatedly miss it risk penalties. Our Form C guide explains the rules in full.
How InnRow helps
- Marks Form C as due when a guest with a foreign nationality checks in
- Shows due forms on the Today screen until you mark them filed
- Keeps passport and visa photos and the details the form asks for with the booking
- Reminds you to report departures where your portal asks for it
InnRow does not submit the form for you. Filing happens on the government portal with your own login.
Questions people ask
Does InnRow file Form C automatically?

Do I need Form C for OCI card holders?
Yes, since the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025 hosts report OCI card holders too. See our Form C guide.
