GAMCA Token Validity 2026

How long is a GAMCA token valid?

Most GAMCA/WAFID tokens are valid for a short window, usually 7 to 14 days. The validity is tied to your clinic appointment date, so missing the slot can make the token unusable.

The window can feel shorter during busy periods because clinics close reporting lists earlier. Treat the appointment date as the final deadline and avoid last-day travel when possible.

Where to check the expiry date

Your QR slip and appointment slip show the reporting date and time. Always confirm the date before printing and keep a digital backup on your phone.

If you reschedule, download the newest slip again because the validity window moves with the new reporting date.

Typical validity timing in practice

• Most applicants get a 7-14 day window tied to the appointment date.
• Urgent slots often have tighter reporting windows, so plan travel early.
• City changes usually require a new token with a fresh validity clock.

How to avoid token expiry

• Book your token close to your travel plan to avoid early expiry.
• Arrive 15-20 minutes before your reporting time.
• Reschedule before the clinic cutoff if plans change.
• Keep your phone active for OTP and clinic confirmation calls.

If you are traveling from another city, arrive the evening before so delays do not push you past the reporting window.

What to do if your token expires

Keep your payment proof and booking messages handy. They help the clinic verify your new slot faster after rebooking.
