Just a short additional post on my recent trip to India to provide some additional tips to using the e-Tourist Visa.
Do I need a visa to enter India?
Singaporeans, yes you need a visa to enter India.
An eTV should be your last option
An etourist visa or eTV should be your last choice due to the higher cost involved. For my case, I needed the visa quite urgently, and I did not have the luxury of putting my passport with the local travel agency for a few days , and thus am somewhat grateful that there is this last minute option.
How to apply
- Go to the website https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/tvoa.html and click the link on the word "Apply Online"
- The website is very clear on what you need to do. Follow the instructions and it should take you 30mins to fill up the required info.
Take note
- You need to have 6 months validity remaining
- Have your pic in jpg and passport in jpg ready
- Know which airport you are going
- Allow 4 days for approval
- Print out the approval paper (will be emailed to you) and bring along with you on your trip
For bangalore: When you reach the airport, go to the counter that says etourist visa. It is right before immigration and you can't miss it. Do not join the immigration queue.
Friends who have been to the other airports, share your experience!
Hope this is useful for you
