Visa for India

Dottie
By Dottie

My daughter has just been on a school trip to India, got back to Doha 2 weeks ago. We have booked a family holiday in Goa, first week in April, but now someone has told me that you cannot re-enter India within a 6 month period. Is this true? I'm freaking out, as we'll have to cancel if that's the case. Obviously I'll contact the Indian embassy tomorrow, but just wondered if anyone out there knows for sure?

I suppose India is open 24 / 7 for the world and the visitors to visit anytime and to admire its values, culture, its goodwill and its people.

Yes, you will need special permission from the Embassy for her to re-enter.

I tried to do the same one time at the embassy in Doha, and they told me to come back after 1pm. When I came back after 1pm, they then told me they were closed, and refused to see me.

In the end I cancelled my trip and have never been back to India.
