3. BEFORE DEPARTURE FORMALITIES
Your passport must be valid for a minimum of 6 months after departure with at least 3 blank pages. If you hold a fresh passport, you may have to show your old passport when you apply for visa.
Apply for an Indian visa in your country of residence. Ask for a 6-month multiple entry visa even if you only need a single entry visa. Except for limited cases, the visa must be obtained before departure.
Submit your travel documents to your travel agent as required (passport copy, insurance cover note, flight tickets, etc) as well as emergency contact details.
