Once your visa application has been approved, the e-Visa will be emailed to you in PDF format. You should print a colour copy to take with you when you arrive in India. We recommend that you print two copies and keep one with your records. When you arrive in India, you must have your e-Visa with your passport. At the airport (or port) on arrival, your biometric details will be taken and the visa stamp will be placed inside your passport at the many e-Visa counters present.
e-Visa holders are now allowed to enter India with a passport other than the one entered in the online application and approved on the e-Visa. On arrival, both passports (old and current) must be presented to immigration.
