India Visa for Australian citizens (2026)

Can Australian citizens get a India eVisa?

India grants online eligibility to Australian citizens across 8 visa options such as Tourist Evisa (Double Entries for 30 days), Tourist Evisa (Multiple Entries for 1 year), Tourist Evisa (Multiple Entries for 5 years). India currently supports Double Entries or Multiple Entries for 1 year or Multiple Entries for 5 years or Triple Entries for 60 days or Single Entry for 30 days, with a permitted stay of 30 days or 365 days. Government fees range from US$50.00 to US$130.00, depending on the visa type. Standard processing is typically 3 working days, with faster options around 1 working day.

Documents and tips for Australian travellers

Australian passports are issued for 10 years to adults; confirm the remaining validity covers the buffer the destination requires beyond your stay. Fees are charged in US dollars, so Australian applicants may notice an AUD conversion on their card. The most common avoidable mistake for Australian citizens: leaving the application to the last minute before a long flight, when processing plus a document follow-up can run past your departure.

• Use the name and passport number exactly as printed in your Australian passport.
• Long-haul routes from Australia often connect through hubs that check your eVisa before boarding, so have it ready.
• Apply with enough lead time to account for time-zone differences in processing and support replies.
