How long can I stay in India with an eVisa?
This depends on the visa you choose. Here’s a breakdown:

Your visa starts from your arrival date, not the issue date, so you can plan your travel flexibly.
Pro tip: If you plan multiple trips over a year or two, the 1-year or 5-year option gives the best value.
Where can I enter India with an eVisa?
Fijian citizens with a valid eVisa can enter India through 29 approved airports or 5 seaports. These include:
Airports
Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Hyderabad, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Kochi, Goa, and more
Seaports
Mumbai, Cochin, Goa, Chennai, Mangalore
While you can leave India from any authorized Immigration Checkpoint, arriving at major international airports is generally smoother.
Pro tip: Immigration queues tend to move faster in larger airports like Delhi or Mumbai, especially if you’re arriving during peak season.
What if my travel plans change?
If you need to stay in India longer, the eVisa cannot be extended. You must apply through India’s Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) for a new visa type before your current one expires.
If you lose your passport in India, the Fijian consulate can help you get emergency travel documents. However, make sure to file a police report first and carry digital backups of all key documents.
Are you planning to visit restricted areas like certain parts of Northeast India or border zones? You may need an extra permit in addition to your visa, so it’s best to check that ahead of time with a travel agency or the Indian embassy.
