vaultdweller0013 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 If you are just planning one trip to India, you can get an e-Tourist visa online. This is also OK for a short business trip. See https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/visa/tvoa.html As an added benefit, there are separate lines for the e-visas (at least in Bangalore) on entry, so it can actually save some time at immigration compared to having an actual visa.

taxout Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 As to the e-visa, note that it's not available at all airports and that some folks have problems getting online payment through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbelyeu Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 The Indian consulate in Bangkok is refusing to process visas unless you can prove that you live in Thailand (i.e non-immigrant visa). This started about mid 2015 so you might want to have a look. Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbelyeu Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 As to the e-visa, note that it's not available at all airports and that some folks have problems getting online payment through. I've never had issues with payments for the e-visa but it may help to have a real credit card and not a debit card. Kurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbelyeu Posted April 12, 2016 Share Posted April 12, 2016 Just an added note.. I was able to DHL my passport to the Houston embassy and apply for a rush 10 year visa which was processed in about 10 days. Kurt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurt hi kurt, that sounds interesting, is the houston embassy still doing this? what are the conditions, costs? and i guess it is a multiple entry visa..

Morch Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) If time is a factor and the Indian Embassy in Bangkok is being difficult, it may be worthwhile contacting their embassy at your country (even without sending the passport). Not sure if its a standard procedure (probably not), but worked a couple of times. Another option, in case your trip and the visa sought are business oriented is to ask for on the spot meeting with someone from their commercial/economic wing in Bangkok - were very helpful sorting some issues.

taxout Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Note that India is rolling out mandatory fingerprinting of visa applicants. If you apply at a place where fingerprinting is now in place, you'll have to apply in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
