Tell me please, if I arrive alone in India, namely in Goa, without a visa for two weeks without a return ticket, can I place a visa on the spot?

No, it's impossible. For the duration of your stay, your passport will be located at the immigration office at the airport. The visa must be issued in advance, more details on the page "Visa to India."

The Embassy of India recommends issuing visas before departure.

To do this you need:

  • a foreign passport with a minimum period of 6 months and two blank pages,
  • application form,
  • one color photo of good quality 3, 5 cm x 4, 0 cm,
  • return ticket.

Hotel reservations or notarized invitations from someone in India (along with a copy of the photo page and the address of the host's passport page).

Copies of internal passport pages (first page and page with registration).

For Russian citizens, a visa is issued within 5 working days in Moscow.
