VOA for non Indian people arriving from India?


Recommended Posts

I would say that all is connected. Of course it will be your nationality first and not the country you are arriving from. However, news yesterday stated that foreigners have to state what countries they have been travelling to recently, in regard to the virus, and are arriving from. So, to sum it up, that seems to be a factor at present time.

Confusing, I wouldn't want to be turned away at the border, arriving from India...????

Whether you need a VOA or not depends on your nationality. (It is possible you qualify for Visa Exempt). Keep abreast of the requirements wrt Covid-19 restrictions too.

India is not the list of restricted countries for entering the country.

The visa on arrival issuance was canceled for every country that qualified for one.

There are 3 countries that are not allowed get a visa exempt entry. They are South Korea, Italy and Hong Kong (but they still can get one under the bilateral agreement with Thailand).

cada33, what is your nationality?  Knowing this would make everything easier since there are still many visa exempt nations -as long as you aren't S. Korean, Italian, from HK...

 

Ps. I just took a look at your other posts, seems like you're trying to hide something about your nationality or current health.

It is your nationality that counts, not where you’ve traveled from.

It is your Passport/ citizenship that counts, nationality is really another thing altogether although the terms are often used interchangeably.

Citizenship is a legal status in a political institution such as a city or a state. The relationship between a citizen and the institution that confers this status is formal, and in contemporary liberal-democratic models includes both a set of rights that the citizen possesses by virtue of this relationship, and a set of obligations or duties that they owe to that institution and their fellow citizens in return.

Nationality, on the other hand, denotes where an individual has been born, or holds citizenship with a state. Nationality is obtained through inheritance from his/her parents, which is called a natural phenomenon. On the other hand, an individual becomes a naturalized citizen of a state only when s/he is accepted into that's nations framework, and then legally his/her nationality has changed by international law. Article 15 under Universal Declaration of Human Rights states "Everyone has the right to a nationality". "No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his nationality nor denied the right to change his nationality". 

Essentially, an individual is able to change his/her nationality through nationalization, citizenship by descent or inheritance of nationality from parents. An example of nationality is Italian to a person with Italian roots born in the United States.

In my passport is says Nationality; British.

 

That is what counts in the context of immigration and VOA. Dispute what Google/Wikipedia say.
