“Welcome to My Parlour…But Don’t Overstay Please!” Tourist Visa on Arrival Scheme

The Government of India has announced a scheme for granting Tourist Visa-on-Arrival for citizens of Finland, Japan, Luxembourg, New Zealand and Singapore (subject to certain exceptions) planning to visit India on single entry, where such entry is strictly for the purpose of tourism, and for a short period viz. maximum of 30 days.

This Visa is non-extendable and non-convertible and will be issued at arrival only at the designated international airports of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata. Only two visits on a Tourist Visa-on-Arrival shall be permissible in a calendar year and there shall be a gap of at least two months between each visit.

Indian hospitality lives up to its name!
