Following are the steps to convert resident savings account to an NRO savings account:

  • Contact the bank where you have your resident savings account and request for conversion from a resident account to the NRO account.
  • Fill in the conversion of resident savings account to NRO account form. ...
  • Get the form signed by all the account holders.
  • Collect photocopies of all supporting documents – visa/ work permit, OCI/ PIO card, passport copy, etc.
