India Tourist e Visa

A tourist e visa is an electronic visa issued to persons interested in visiting India as tourists.

This e visa is available in different forms; we have the single-entry e visa, which allows you to stay in the country for up to 30 days, but you must apply for it at least 4-30 days before your arrival.

Then there are the Multiple entry options valid for one year and five years, allowing you to stay for up to 6 months, but you must apply for it at least 4-120 days before your arrival.

The five-year multiple entry e visa for tourism also allows you to stay up to 6 months and must be obtained 4-120 days before your trip.

Both multiple-entry visas can be used to visit India several times a year as long as they are valid.

To get this visa, you must provide documents to prove that you have what it takes to cover your living and traveling expenses.

Port of Entry

You can only use the e visa to enter India by sea or air. Here is a list of airports and seaports in approved cities.

  • Amristar – Ahmedabad – Bagdogra – Bhubaneswar – Bengaluru – Chennai – Coimbatore – Chandigarh – Delhi – Goa – Guwahati - Gaya –Jaipur – Hyderabad – Kochi – Kolkata – Kannur – Lucknow – Kozhikode – Madurai – Mumbai – Mangaluru – Nagpur – Port Blair – Pune – Varanasi – Thiruvananthapuram – Varanasi – Tiruchirappalli – Cochin – Visakhapatnam

India Business e Visa

The business e visa is meant for business professionals, entrepreneurs, and consultants coming to India from e visa eligible countries to conduct business. This travel e visa is not a work visa; you cannot use it for work (you will need a work visa issued by the Indian embassy for that). The e visa is for settling contracts, attending meetings, short professional training, etc. To avail of this e visa, you must provide the required documents to prove your eligibility.

Business e visas are also of different types and duration. The single entry visa can only be used to enter India once for a period of 30 days, and it is valid for one month. Applicants must apply for it 4-30 days before their arrival. The multiple-entry e-visa is valid for 1 year and 5 years, respectively, and holders can stay in India for up to 6 months, but they must apply for it at least 4-120 days before their arrival.

Indian Conference e Visa

India Visa Policy

The visa policy of India mandates visitors to get visas before they can enter the country, but this rule doesn't apply to citizens from visa-exempt countries. Visa-exempt visitors are of two groups; the first group gets a visa on arrival in India, while the second group may apply for e visas online abroad before making the trip to India. India's visa policy spells out the rules, regulations, and requirements for foreigners coming to India based on their nationality, the purpose of the trip, and the duration of stay.

India's e visa is available to a vast majority of nationalities who can access it online. The e visa program offers eligible visitors five types of e visas, namely the tourist, business, medical, medical attendant, and conference e visa. Each one is issued for a specific purpose, and they have their unique requirements.

India also issues permits to Foreigners who may want to study or work in India or those who wish to stay much longer. People in this category are not eligible for e visas because e visas are only for short visits. For long-term visits, they must apply to the Indian embassy in their home country or country of residence.

Also, important to note are foreigners who enjoy visa-exempt status are free to visit and stay indefinitely. Citizens of Maldives are eligible for permanent residency in India despite not having visas, and due to their privileged status, they can live and work in India without requiring permits.

If you are from any of the eligible countries, you can apply for an e visa, provided you meet the requirements. Consult the list of eligible countries before applying.

Key Information About The Indian e Visa

Apply For A Visa That Meets Your Needs

When applying for an e visa be careful so you don't apply for the wrong one. These visas are created to meet specific purposes so make sure you are picking the right one. For instance, if you are traveling for a conference, apply for a conference visa not a business visa. Persons traveling to India for medical treatment as patients should apply for a medical e visa not a medical attendant visa.

This is because the immigration officers at the entry port will ask questions and demand documents from you and you may encounter problems if your papers don't align with the purpose of your trip.

The Fee Is Non Refundable

The application fee is mandatory and if you don't pay it you will not be able to submit your application. This fee is for document processing and will not be refunded even if your application is denied. It should be paid with a bank issued debit or credit card with sufficient funds to cover the bank charges and application fee.

It Cannot Be Converted

Although you can extend your stay in India as an e visa visitor, you cannot convert it to a residential visa for a longer stay. If you change your mind and would like to remain in the country for a longer time, you will have to leave and apply for a consular visa outside India.

Enter Through Approved Routes

You must enter India through any of the approved routes listed under each e visa. If you attempt to enter through an unapproved route you may be allowed into the country by law enforcement.
