India Visa for UK citizens (2026)

Can UK citizens get a India eVisa?

India grants online eligibility to UK 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 British travellers

British Citizen passports are the relevant document here; make sure yours is the full 10-year adult passport and has the validity buffer the destination requires beyond your stay. Fees are typically billed in US dollars, so British applicants may see a small card conversion from GBP at checkout. The most common avoidable mistake for UK citizens: booking flights first and assuming entry rules match the EU — UK passport holders should confirm the eVisa requirement separately for each destination.

• Enter your details exactly as shown on the photo page of your British Citizen passport.
• Post-Brexit rules mean some routes that were once seamless for UK travellers now require an eVisa or travel authorisation — confirm before you book.
• If you hold a British National (Overseas) or other British status, your eligibility can differ from a standard British Citizen.
