Useful Links
The team at India & Kerala Connections have put together a useful list of links to help you plan your trip of a lifetime to India
Indian Visa Online – Government of India.
This is the official site for online applications for both eVisas and Regular Visas. It also provides all necessary information about the application process.
If you don’t use this link – ensure you go to the correct site as there are some ‘fake sites’ with similar www’s that look ‘official’.
Travel Aware – https://travelaware.campaign.gov.uk
To make an informed decision about the destination you are considering visiting citizens should take the advice of their respective governments. For British citizens this is the FCO (Foreign & Commonwealth Office) and the site to refer to is Travel Aware. This site has information about travelling abroad as well as a link to the FCO’s Foreign Travel Advice site (https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/foreign-commonwealth-office). We recommend you look at this before booking any holiday and then again before departure. You can also sign up for e-mail alerts.
