New E-Visa Policy! Good for Indian & Chinese!

India has further relaxed E-Visa policy for Chinese Nationals at a time when leaders of the two nations had met for the second informal summit. It seems that the relationship between India and China will be closer.

On Oct 11, 2019, Embassy of India in Beijing issued a notice, saying that the Government of India has decided to further liberalize its e-visa policy for Chinese nationals.

The liberalization is from the perspective of duration and fee of e-visas. Here are the detailed terms:

1. From October 2019 onwards, Chinese nationals can apply for e-Tourist visa (e-TV) of a 5 year validity with multiple entries. The visa fee for this 5 year multiple entry e-TV will be US$ 80.

2. In addition, it has also been decided that prospective tourists can avail single entry 30 day validity e-TV at a reduced visa fee of US$ 25. For a 30 day e-TV during the months of April to June, the visa fee will be only US$ 10.

3. The one year multiple entry e-TV will continue to be offered but at a reduced visa fee of US$ 40.

4. In addition to the above e-TV, the existing e-medical visa, e-conference visa and the one year multiple entry e-business visa will continue to be issued from the online platform of Indian visas. Further details on electronic visas can be obtained from the following weblink:

5. It is anticipated that this unilateral liberalisation of e-TV for Chinese nationals will further enhance people-to-people exchanges between the two countries and encourage more Chinese tourists to choose India as a destination for tourism purposes.
