Visa Guidance by Destination
General starting points for a few commonly-requested destinations โ your agent will confirm exact requirements for your passport and travel dates.
United States
Most Indian tourist/business travelers to the US apply for a B1/B2 visa, which requires an in-person embassy interview โ plan well ahead, as appointment availability varies. Your agent can help you prepare documents and prep for the interview.
UAE / Dubai
The UAE offers e-visa processing for most Indian travelers, typically faster than embassy visas. Options like the UAE Golden Visa exist for longer-term stays โ ask your agent which route fits your trip.
Taiwan
Taiwan runs an online e-visa system for eligible Indian travelers. Requirements and eligibility can change, so confirm current rules with your agent before booking flights.
Schengen / Europe (France, Spain, Luxembourg & more)
A single Schengen visa covers short stays across most of Europe, including France, Spain, and Luxembourg. Apply through the embassy or visa center of your main destination country. Some non-Schengen European countries are also visitable on a valid Schengen visa โ ask your agent which apply to your itinerary.
Malaysia & Philippines
Both countries offer visa-free or e-visa entry for many Indian travelers depending on purpose and stay length. Confirm current eligibility with your agent, as visa-free arrangements are periodically revised.
Egypt
Egypt offers a tourist e-visa for eligible travelers, usually processed in a few working days. Your agent can confirm current fees and validity.
Israel
Israel has moved to a digital e-visa system for eligible Indian travelers, replacing older embassy-visit requirements for many applicants. Ask your agent whether you qualify.
Armenia
Armenia offers e-visa access for many Indian travelers with a straightforward online application. Your agent can walk you through current documentation needs.
Albania
Albania has offered simplified entry for Indian travelers holding a valid Schengen, UK, or US visa in recent years โ rules change periodically, so confirm current status with your agent.
GCC Grand Tours (multi-country Gulf visa)
A unified visa initiative modeled on the Schengen system has been discussed among several Gulf Cooperation Council countries, potentially allowing one visa to cover multiple GCC destinations. Ask your agent for the current status before planning a multi-country Gulf trip.
