About Business Visa to India
India Business Visa, officially called Indian e-Business Visa, is an electronic visa issued online by Indian authorities. The visa is intended for individuals traveling to India for business purposes, such as meeting with business partners, attending conferences, trade shows, negotiations, or exploring business opportunities.
The visa must be approved before departure and is linked electronically to your passport. Upon approval, you will receive an electronic travel authorization to be presented upon arrival in India. Even if the visa is electronic, the airline’s check-in staff may ask to see a printed copy of your approved visa before you board. We therefore recommend that you print out your visa document and carry a paper copy with you throughout your trip.
The India Business Visa is valid for one year from the date of issue and entitles you to multiple entries during the validity period. The maximum stay allowed is 180 days. The visa is intended for business-related activities and may not be used for employment or paid work in India. The visa is not extendable and cannot be converted to another visa category after arrival in India.
You will need the following documents to apply:
- Completed visa application
- Copy of passport information page
- The passport must be valid for at least 6 months after the date of entry
- Visa photo
- Invitation from companies in India
- Scanned copy of your business card
India can change visa rules and document requirements at short notice. It is therefore important to check the current rules before submitting the application.
