Slovenian citizens are eligible for the Indian e-Visa. This electronic travel authorisation lets you apply online, receive approval by email, and travel to India without visiting a consulate. You must apply on the official government site before your trip. The e-Visa covers tourism, business, and medical visits. Check the official site for the latest categories and processing times.
What the e-Visa means
The Indian e-Visa for Slovenian citizens is an electronic authorisation that replaces a traditional visa sticker. You apply online, upload documents, and pay the fee. Once approved, you receive an Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA) by email. Print this and carry it with your passport when you travel.
The e-Visa is linked to your passport number. It allows entry at designated airports and seaports in India. You cannot enter by land border with an e-Visa. Check the official site for the current list of ports of entry.
Before you travel and on arrival
When you arrive in a major Indian city such as Delhi, Mumbai, or Bengaluru, the airport has clear signage for e-Visa holders. Follow the signs to the immigration hall. Have your documents ready. The biometric process is quick.
Travelling between Indian cities is straightforward. You can take domestic flights, trains, or buses. No additional visa checks are required within India. Your passport with the e-Visa stamp serves as your travel document.
Staying longer, working or studying
The e-Visa is for short stays. If you plan to stay longer than the e-Visa allows, or if you want to work or study in India, you must apply for a different visa category. Visit the official site to see options such as the employment visa, student visa, or long-term tourist visa.
For any visa that is not the e-Visa, you must apply at the Indian embassy or consulate in Slovenia. The process involves an interview and submission of physical documents. Check the official site of the Indian embassy in Ljubljana for details.
