India visa for Grenadian citizens

Check the official site before you travel. imptpune.in is a hotel and travel site; it does not issue visas. Visa rules change: confirm on indianvisaonline.gov.in.

Grenadian passport holders can apply for an Indian e-Visa online. This electronic travel authorisation covers tourism, business, medical visits and short-term stays. You must apply before departure and arrive at a designated airport or seaport. The e-Visa is linked electronically to the passport. Always verify the latest requirements on the official government website before booking travel.

What the e-Visa means

The Indian e-Visa allows Grenadian citizens to enter India for a short stay without visiting an Indian embassy or consulate. It is an electronic authorisation that you receive by email after approval. You must print a copy to show at immigration. The e-Visa is valid for entry at specific airports and seaports only.

This visa covers tourism, business conferences, medical treatment and casual visits. It does not permit paid employment or long-term study. For any other purpose, you need a different visa from an Indian mission. The e-Visa is a convenient option for most short trips.

Before you travel

Ensure the passport is valid for the duration of the stay. No specific validity period is required beyond that, but you must check the official site for any changes. You also need a return or onward ticket. Immigration may ask for proof of sufficient funds for the stay.

If you have a criminal record or have been refused entry to India before, disclose this on the application. The Indian government may deny the e-Visa for security reasons. For such cases, contact the Indian High Commission in Grenada for guidance.

Arriving in India

When travelling between Indian cities, you do not need additional permits for most places. However, some states require special permits for foreign nationals, such as for parts of the Northeast and the Andaman Islands. Check with the local authorities or the Ministry of Home Affairs website before visiting restricted areas.

Domestic flights and trains are available for inter-city travel. You can book tickets online or at stations. Always carry the passport and a copy of the e-Visa when moving around. Some hotels may ask to see the visa on check-in.

Staying longer or working

If you overstay the visa, you face fines and possible deportation. Apply for an extension or a new visa before the current visa expires. The Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) in India handles visa extensions. Contact them if you have a genuine reason to stay longer.

For any changes in visa rules, always refer to indianvisaonline.gov.in. The site is the official source for e-Visa applications and updates. Do not rely on third-party websites for information. The Indian government may revise fees, processing times and eligibility without notice.
