Fee Update: 5 Year and Business eVisa Prices Increased

The Indian authorities have raised eVisa fees across several categories. These changes are now reflected on the official portal.

5 Year Tourist eVisa

  • Most nationalities: 200 USD
  • United States passport holders: 160 USD
  • United Kingdom passport holders: 448 USD

Business eVisa

  • Most nationalities: 120 USD
  • United States passport holders: 140 USD
  • United Kingdom passport holders: 242 USD

Based on these increases, especially the sharp rise for the 5 year tourist visa, it appears that long duration visas are being intentionally discouraged in favor of shorter options. The pricing difference is now large enough that many applicants may reconsider whether a 5 year visa still makes sense for their travel needs.

If you are applying, make sure to check the current fees carefully before submitting payment, as costs vary significantly by nationality and visa type.

As always, fees and policies can change without advance notice. We will continue sharing confirmed updates when official pricing or rules are adjusted.
