Everything you need to know before travelling to India
Before travelling to India, it is essential to understand the visa and entry requirements applicable to your nationality. India has introduced a convenient electronic visa (e-Visa) system that allows citizens of most countries to apply online before arrival. Below is a comprehensive guide to help you prepare for your journey.
Available for tourism purposes. Valid for 30, 90 or 365 days with single, double or multiple entries. Most popular choice for leisure travellers.
For business meetings, trade fairs and conferences. Valid for 365 days with multiple entries. Cannot be used for paid work.
For medical treatment in India. Valid for 60 days with triple entry. Requires letter from Indian hospital.
For stays exceeding e-Visa validity or specific purposes. Apply at the Indian Embassy or Consulate in your country.
The Indian e-Visa system is simple and fully online. Follow these steps:
Verify that your country is eligible for the Indian e-Visa. Citizens of most countries in Europe, the Americas, Australia and many Asian nations qualify.
Visit the official Indian e-Visa portal and complete the application form with personal details, travel information and upload required documents.
Pay the e-Visa fee online using a credit/debit card. Fees vary by nationality and visa type — tourist visas typically cost between $10–$80.
Receive your Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) via email — usually within 72 hours. Apply at least 4 days before travel.
Print your ETA or save it on your phone. Present it at the Indian port of entry along with your valid passport.
Entry requirements and visa regulations are subject to change. Always check the latest requirements with your country's Indian Embassy or the official Indian government immigration website before travel. Our team is available to guide you — contact us for personalised assistance.
