Visa questions

Do I need a visa to visit Ahmedabad?

Ahmedabad follows India's national visa rules. Most foreign visitors need a visa; many nationalities can apply online for an Indian e-Visa, others apply to an Indian mission, and citizens of Nepal and Bhutan can visit without one. Pick your nationality above for your page, and check indianvisaonline.gov.in before you travel.

Where do I apply for the Indian e-Visa?

Only on the official Government of India site, indianvisaonline.gov.in. Third-party sites may charge extra or look official without being so. Apply before you travel and keep the approval with your passport; the official site sets the categories, fees and timing.
