Can babies go to India without a visa?

No, babies cannot go to India without a visa. All foreign travelers, regardless of age, need a visa to enter India. This includes babies.

There are a few exceptions to this rule. Babies who are born in India to foreign parents are automatically Indian citizens and do not need a visa to enter India. However, they will need to have a passport.

Babies born in another nation who have a valid visa for that country may enter India without a visa. They must, however, apply for a visa at the Indian embassy or consulate in their native nation before traveling to India.

If you intend to travel to India with a newborn, you should begin the visa application procedure as soon as possible. The processing period for a visa varies based on the kind of visa and the nation from which you apply.

Here are some extra hints when applying for a baby visa to India:

  • Before you begin the application process, make sure you have all of the necessary documentation in order. This will assist to expedite the procedure and prevent delays.
  • Expect inquiries regarding the baby's citizenship and travel history.
  • If the baby has not yet been born, you must supply a copy of the parent's passport as well as a medical certificate indicating the estimated date of delivery.
