With the proper steps, you’ll be all set to enjoy India’s colorful culture, rich history, and beautiful sights.
Do Filipinos Need a Visa for India?
Yes. Filipino citizens must have a visa before entering India. The easiest and fastest option is the India eVisa, which you can apply for online, with no embassy visits required.
Various eVisa types cater to your travel requirements, with visa validity options of 30 days and one year. They include both Double Entry and Multiple Entry choices. Simply select the one that suits your journey.
What is the India Tourist eVisa?
The India Tourist eVisa is an online visa for people visiting India for tourism, sightseeing, or to meet family and friends. It’s 100% digital, and you can apply from your phone or computer and skip the embassy.
India also offers other eVisa types:
- Tourist eVisa – for vacations or visiting loved ones.
- Business eVisa – for meetings, conferences, or trade.
- Medical eVisa – for health-related travel or treatments.
How Hard Is It to Apply?
It’s actually relatively easy. The India eVisa process is smooth and hassle-free.
- The application is entirely online, and there’s no need to visit an embassy or attend any interviews.
- You’ll just answer some basic questions about your travel plans and personal details.
- All you need to upload is your passport and a recent photo.
“After struggling to upload my photo on different devices, I almost gave up,”
says Daniel Cruz, a frequent traveler. “Thankfully, eVisa support guided me through it.”
A Heads-Up on Restricted Areas
Some parts of Northeast India, like Arunachal Pradesh, are restricted. You’ll need special permits to visit these areas, even if you already have an eVisa. Visit the Ministry of Development of the North Eastern Region for more details.
