What is a guest registration card?
A guest registration card (GRC) is the form every guest fills and signs at check-in. It records the guest's identity, address, stay dates, room and rate, and the guest's acceptance of hotel rules. In India the GRC, together with a copy of a valid photo ID, is the record the police or authorities may ask to see, and for foreign nationals the same details feed into Form C. This free generator creates a clean, printable GRC format with your hotel name and address in seconds.
What a GRC should include
- Stay details — arrival and departure, room number and type, rate, meal plan, booking source and ID.
- Primary guest — name, mobile, email, address, nationality, ID type and number, coming from and going to.
- Accompanying guests with their ID details.
- Foreign national section — passport, visa, arrival in India and port of arrival for Form C.
- Company GST details for invoices, advance payment and receipt number.
- A short declaration and the guest's signature.
Paper GRC or digital?
Many properties now use a digital GRC inside their PMS or a tablet. The fields are the same — use this format as a checklist for your software, or print it for manual check-ins and as a backup. Read the full process in our check-in SOP and the foreign guest and Form C SOP.
