Visa and travel advice

The Indian e-visa, official Dutch travel advice and help from the Dutch embassy.

Dutch nationals always need a visa for India. For tourism, business visits and some other purposes you can apply for an e-visa online. Only do so through the official Indian government website: many commercial sites look official and charge considerably more.

Before you leave, read the travel advice from the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It is updated whenever the security situation changes and also lists areas that require special permits.
