Most visitors need an e-Visa, applied for online before travel. Processing typically takes a few business days.

This is a general overview, not a substitute for checking current official sources. Visa policy changes — sometimes with very little notice — and requirements can vary significantly depending on your specific nationality, the purpose of your visit, and how long you plan to stay.

DISCLAIMER: TripAdept is an informational travel guide, not an immigration authority. The information above is provided as a general starting point only. Before booking travel, always verify current entry requirements directly with India’s official government immigration website or your nearest embassy or consulate, since requirements can change at any time and vary by nationality.
