Hello,
I am a foreign citizen but a Person of Indian Origin (PIO). I understand that I must apply for a DGCA India computer number before applying to write the CPL conversion exam(s). But, the instructions from their website also state that "foreign nationals should submit an attested copy of security clearance
certificate/NOC issued by DGCA along with application.
1) Being a PIO with the right to work in India, would this apply to me? If so,
what is involved in this, and how long does it take to obtain the clearance?
Also, where can I download the form (I can't find it anywhere on the DGCA
website)?
2) Having mentioned this, are pilots employed by airlines in India required to
obtain a 'Airport Entry Pass' from the BCAS? If so, how long does it take to
obtain it?
It seems like everything involving the Indian government is a matter of time! Thanks for you help.
