Bezpoleznyak Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I need to get an indian visa. I thought I could do that in Malaysia but it turned out I can't because they accept applications only from the residents of Malaysia. I can that in Bangkok but the prices of the tickets to India from Bangkok are 2 times higher than from Kuala Lumpur so I'll probably have to take a flight from Kuala Lumpur anyway. Your suggestions? Singapore? Edited November 27, 2015 by Bezpoleznyak Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamKangMan Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 You could visit The High Commission of India in Singapore, and then fly with Tigerair who fly to several destinations in India. That said, weigh up the costs of accommodation in Bangkok versus Singapore, as you may have to wait 2 days for the visa. It may be cheaper to get it in Bangkok, due to cheaper accommodation options, versus the more expensive flight. Cost it all out and take your pick.

Bezpoleznyak Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 I heard that there're the agencies in Phuket that can help me with an Indian visa. But I don't know whether or not they're reliable and legitimate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bezpoleznyak Posted November 27, 2015 Author Share Posted November 27, 2015 The validity of visa will be 30 days from the date of arrival in India. e-Tourist Visa (eTV) once issued on arrival is Only single entry , non-extendable , non-convertible & not valid for visiting Protected/Restricted and Cantonment Areas. that's e-visa. Where is Single (S), Multiple (M) ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
