The online application process eliminates the need for physical paperwork and visits to embassies or consulates.
Officially known as the "e-Tourist Visa," it provides a convenient and quick way to secure travel permissions for those looking to experience India's rich cultural heritage and stunning landscapes.

- Visit tourist sites across India.
- Attend cultural and festival events.
- Take short-term yoga or cooking classes.
- Visit family or friends.

- Bank statements: Recent statements indicating sufficient balance.
- Sponsorship letter: If someone is sponsoring your trip, a letter from them stating their commitment to cover your expenses is accompanied by their financial documents.
These financial documents help demonstrate that you can support yourself during your visit to India. We will guide you on how to provide these proofs effectively as part of our visa application services.

Visa-exempt: Who doesn't need to apply for India Tourist eVisa?
Citizens of Nepal and Bhutan do not require a visa to enter India. These travelers can enter, live, and work in India without a visa. For all other nationalities, a visa or eVisa is typically necessary to travel to India.
Do children also require the India Tourist eVisa?
Yes, children require an India Tourist eVisa just like adults. The application process is the same for minors, and they must have a visa to enter India regardless of their age.
When applying for a visa for a minor, legal guardians need to provide additional documents:
- A copy of the minor’s birth certificate.
- Copies of the passports of the child's parents or legal guardians.
- A consent letter signed by both parents or legal guardians, which authorizes the child's travel to India.
These extra steps ensure the safety and proper documentation of minors traveling to India.
India Tourist eVisa validity: How long can I stay in India?
Here are the options for the India Tourist eVisa we offer, along with their validity and entry types:
- 30-day double-entry visa: This eVisa allows two entries into India and is valid for 30 days, so you must use it to enter India within that time. You also have 30 days max stay from the date of your first entry.
- 1-year multiple-entry visa: This visa is valid for one year from the date of issuance. You can enter India multiple times during the year, and it permits stays of up to 90 days per visit for most nationalities, except for the U.S., UK, and Canada, who can stay for up to 180 days per visit. The maximum stay for all nationalities is 180 days per year.
- 5-year multiple-entry visa: This eVisa offers the greatest flexibility. Valid for 5 years from the date of issue, it allows multiple entries, with each stay capped at 90 days. Except for those from the U.S., UK, and Canada, who can stay for up to 180 days. The maximum stay within a year for all nationalities is 180 days.
For both the 1 and 5-year India visas, you need to ensure that your first entry into India is within 120 days from the date the visa is issued. Plan your trips according to these rules to make the most of your India Tourist Visa.
eVisa extensions and renewals
You won’t be able to extend your Indian Tourist eVisas or renew it. You can only stay in the country for the indicated duration. The Government stipulates that there should be a gap of at least 2 months between two visits to India on a Tourist Visa.
In exceptional cases, extensions may be granted, subject to the Government of India's discretion.
