The new 30-day e-tourist visa (e-TV) for visiting India costs only £39 ($60) and is available to citizens of more than 40 countries including the UK, France, Germany, Sweden, Australia and US. Apply and pay on-line with your debit/credit card and your visa for India will be emailed to you. There is no need to send off your passport – it’s all done on line and by email. This is great news for anyone booking a two-week holiday at Kailasam, especially those of you coming from the UK where the new visa will save you £50, and if you want to extend your holiday to see more of Kerala and India, you’ll still have two weeks left on your visa to do so. The new visa is valid for one single entry into India.
