India Revise Tibetan RC Renewal Delay Penalty to Rupees

After the Tibetan administrative bodies approached the Indian authorities with regard to the Tibetan Registration Certificate (RC) renewal delay penalties, it has now been revised for Tibetans to pay the delay penalties in Indian Rupees. The revision has been made from the earlier penalty levied in US dollars.

According to an earlier notice to the Tibetan refugees living in India, failure to renew the Registration Certificate/stay permit will be charged with financial penalty of USD 300 for delay upto 90 days, USD 400 for delay from 91 days to upto 2 years and USD 500 for delay exceeding 2 years.

The office’s interpretation of the financial penalty amounts to 21,600 for delay upto 90 days, 28,800 rupees for delay from 91 days to upto 2 years and 36,000 rupees for delay exceeding 2 years. The heavy duty penalty put against the Tibetans living in the country as refugees caused a huge trauma among the them. With large number of people living within the refugee camps, located mostly in remote parts, the penalty amount became unlikely payable.

According to the revised penalty, Tibetans will now be fined INR 100 for upto 90 days delay, INR 200 for delay between 91 to 2 years delay and INR 500 for delays beyond 2 years. The revised notice has even mentioned that those Tibetans whose penalties are still pending to be paid can pay according to the revised amount.

Although the government of India has provided a relaxation if validity of the Tibetan RCs to five years from one year, many Tibetans in various Tibetan settlements across India were facing the burden of heavy financial penalty applicable to their delayed renewal of their RCs. This revision has now brought great relief for the them.
