The office of the Superintendent of Police, Wokha, has issued a notification enforcing mandatory provisions under Sections 6, 8, 9, and 10 of the Immigration & Foreigners Act, 2025. The order directs strict adherence to registration and reporting requirements for foreigners arriving in the district, with the SP office designated as the Registration Office.
According to the notification, all foreigners must register with the Foreigner Registration Officer upon arrival in the district. Keepers of accommodation are required to submit prescribed information regarding foreign guests, while universities, educational institutions, and other admitting bodies must furnish details of foreign students. Hospitals, nursing homes, and medical institutions providing medical or lodging facilities are also mandated to report information about foreigners in the prescribed manner.
Accommodation owners are specifically directed to submit Form-III (Form-C) within 24 hours of check-in, with mandatory reporting upon check-out. The process is to be completed digitally via the e-FRRO system, though physical forms may be submitted if online services are unavailable.
The SP office emphasized that these measures are being enforced in the interest of public order, security, and compliance with national regulations.
All stakeholders, including accommodation providers, institutions, and medical facilities, have been urged to strictly follow the provisions without exception.
