Eligible applicants can now apply electronically in five categories (tourism, business, medical, ‘Ayush’ (traditional Indian medicine), and conferences) without visiting visa centers.
Business eVisas are valid for up to one year; tourist eVisas are valid for up to five years; and medical, medical attendant, and conference visas are issued for shorter durations.
The entire application process is completed online and costs between USD 40 to USD 80.
Biometrics are captured upon arrival in India. Approved eVisas allow entry to India through 32 designated airports and five seaports, while the traditional paper visa route via the Indian Consular Application Centers in Kuwait remains available.
