In some exciting news for people planning to travel to India, the Indian government is introducing more visa options that are much cheaper than the previously one - year visa option.
The government will introduce one-month e-visa and make charges flexible, with fee for summer months — non-peak months for tourism — kept less than the rest of the year.
Leisure tourists will be charged $10 for a 30-day e-visa for travel between April and June, and $25 for any other month, Union Tourism Minister Prahlad Patel announced on Tuesday. Currently, India charges $80-100 for one-year e-visa for tourists from most countries.
Let us hope that this gives our prospective guests more food for thought to visit the region.
