Sammarinese citizens can travel to India with an e-Visa. This electronic travel authorisation is obtained online before departure. It covers tourism, business, and medical visits. You must apply on the official government portal. The e-Visa is linked to your passport electronically. Carry a printout of the approval email. On arrival, proceed to the e-Visa counter at designated airports and seaports.
What the e-Visa Means for You
The Indian e-Visa allows Sammarinese citizens to enter India for short stays without visiting an embassy. You apply online, receive approval by email, and present it at immigration. It is valid for entry at 28 international airports and 5 major seaports. The e-Visa covers tourism, business conferences, and medical treatment. Check the official site for the current list of entry points.
Before You Travel and on Arrival
Apply at least four days before your planned travel date on the official e-Visa site. Have your passport with at least six months validity from the date of arrival. Upload a recent photograph and a scanned copy of your passport bio page. Pay the fee online using a credit or debit card. Check the official site for the exact fee and processing time. Once approved, the e-Visa is sent to your email. Print a copy to carry with you. On arrival at an Indian airport, go to the e-Visa counter. Your fingerprints and photograph will be taken. The immigration officer stamps your passport.
Arriving in India's Big Cities and Travelling Between Them
Major Indian cities such as Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, and Hyderabad have e-Visa counters. From the airport, you can take a prepaid taxi or ride app to your accommodation. The metro and bus networks are reliable in these cities. For travel between cities, book trains and domestic flights online. Always carry your passport and e-Visa printout. Some states require registration at hotels; the hotel staff handles this.
Staying Longer, Working or Studying
The e-Visa is for short stays only. If you plan to stay longer, work, or study, you need a different visa. Apply for an employment visa, student visa, or entry visa at the Indian embassy in Rome or the consulate in Milan.

Overstaying your e-Visa can lead to fines and future visa restrictions.
