Are you thinking of applying for the Indian visa from Bangladesh?

Being a Bangladeshi citizen, and applying for Indian visa has its perks. Bangladeshi citizens wishing to visit India will be able to do so without prior appointments. The decision is in effect since 2017.

That means, if you wish to travel to India, you can submit your Indian visa applications without prior appointments. If you have confirmed air, bus, or train tickets from authorized operators, then you can submit your visa application directly to Indian High Commission without prior appointments.

The new visa application rule is intended to ease access to the Indian visa, and strengthen people to people relationship between India and Bangladesh. At least that is what the Indian High Commission in Bangladesh said.

Visa applicants are hereby requested to submit their application between 8:30an to 12:30 pm. Once you have submitted the application to the Indian High Commission for the tourist visa, you won’t be required to submit confirmed tickets to India.

Since there are other schemes based on non-tourist visas, such as business visa, medical visa, conference visa, etc., you have other walk-in application schemes available for them as well. Separate counters for walk-in tourist visas are also opened.

Indian missions around the world issue India tourist visas for those that require a visa to enter India. Most nationalities are eligible to apply for an e-Visa or Visa on Arrival.

Nationalities that are eligible for India e-Visa or India Visa on Arrival are also eligible to apply for an Indian tourist visa from their nearest Indian embassy or consulate. There may be occasions where a tourist visa from the embassy is a better choice than an India e-Visa or India Visa on Arrival . For example, US nationals can get a 10-year tourist visa from the embassy vs an Indian e-Visa which is only valid for 5 years. So a tourist visa from the embassy is a better choice in this case.

There are three types of tourist visa categories T-1, T-2 and T-3. T-1 is for tourists. T-2 is for tour groups and T-3 is for cruise passengers.

In the online application, you must select the Indian embassy/consulate where you plan to apply for your visa. 

After filling out the application, you must print and sign it. 

If the Indian embassy/consulate did not outsource the visa application to a visa application center, then you can walk into the embassy/consulate any day to pay the fee and submit your visa application.

India relocates consulate staff in Myanmar, issues travel advisory

Mea spokesperson randhir jaiswal said that the security situation in myanmar remains precarious amid fighting between the rebels and the military..

Listen to Story

• MEA says security situation in Myanmar deteriorating
• Indians advised to observe proper safety protocols
• India relocates embassy staff from Sittwe to Yangon

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on Friday cautioned Indians travelling to violence-hit Myanmar , saying they should observe proper safety protocols. India has also relocated its staff from its consulate in Myanmarese city of Sittwe.

Addressing a weekly media briefing, MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said that the security situation in Myanmar remains precarious and deteriorating .

"Indians who are travelling to Myanmar should observe proper safety protocols and take care of themselves while the embassy is there to take care of them," Jaiswal said.

"The security situation in Myanmar remains precarious and deteriorating. You heard about the fighting that is going on, specifically in Rakhine state and other areas. Some time back, we issued an advisory to our nationals so that they could take due care," he further said.

The MEA said India has temporarily moved staff from its consulate in Sittwe to Yangon in view of the fighting in Rakhine state of Myanmar. However, the Consulate in Mandalay remains fully functional.

The Southeast Asian nation plunged into chaos after its military ousted the elected government of Aung San Suu Kyi in February 2021, sparking widespread armed resistance across the country.

Recently, a relentless assault by anti-coup forces forced around 200 Myanmar military personnel to withdraw to the Friendship Bridge connecting the border town of Myawaddy to Thailand.

The anti-junta forces declared they had gained control of the critical border town of Myawaddy.

"Today KNU-led joint resistance forces captured the remaining military base in Myawaddy," Kyaw Zaw, a spokesperson for Myanmar's National Unity Government, told news agency Reuters.

The National Unity Government is a shadow administration of ousted lawmakers and anti-junta groups.

The military has already lost its control of areas along Myanmar's borders with India, China and Bangladesh. Its manpower has also been depleted.
