If you are uncertain about your blood group, use appropriate medical or laboratory records rather than guessing.

Address (Building, Street, Landmark)
Provide appropriate information that helps establish your location.

Where supported, the state may be automatically identified from the pincode you enter.
Check the information before continuing.

Your mobile number may be used for supported account, communication, verification or platform-related functions.

You do not need to be a current blood or platelet donor to become part of the BDOI® community.
During registration, select the option that best describes you.
For example:
🟢 I am not a donor, but I want to support the BDOI® mission
or:
🔵 I am interested in becoming a blood/platelet donor
This allows BDOI® to welcome people at different stages of their connection with blood donation.
What if I used to donate but currently cannot donate?
Select:
🟠 I was a donor, but I am currently unable to donate
You do not need to provide the reason for your current inability to donate in this registration question.
Your previous connection with blood donation remains an important part of your relationship with the BDOI® community.
What if I want to become a donor in the future?
Select:
🔵 I am interested in becoming a blood/platelet donor
You can then explore BDOI®'s educational resources, including:
- Donation Eligibility
- Myths & Facts

- Jeevan – AI Blood Donation Assistant
- Blood-donation educational content
You should always confirm your actual eligibility with an appropriate healthcare professional or donation centre before donating.
What if I only want to support BDOI®?
