• Apart from the visa affixed in your passport, ensure that you also receive two copies of
Immigration Form (one each for entry & exit) duly endorsed by the High Commission. Please
carry this safely when travelling to India. The Immigration form is required to be presented along
with your passport/visa at the Immigration check-point/counters - one Immigration form at the
time of entry into India and the second copy at the time of leaving India.
• Entries made in the Visa sticker are correctly endorsed on the immigration form.
• Endorsements on mode of transport and point of Entry & Exit are made on the visa. For entry/exit
through Wagah/Attari, Bus or Train modes are specified. Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai indicate
travel by air.
• The visitor cannot stay in India beyond the date of expiry of visa irrespective of the period of
stay. (For example, a person issued visa on January 1, 2008 with date of expiry on March 31,
2008 and a stay of 45 days, must leave India before March 31, 2005 even if the person enters
India on March 15, 2008)
• Applicants are required to carry one colour passport size photograph (identical to that provided in
the visa application form) along with them while visiting India. The photograph is required to be
presented along with the passport and immigration forms to the Immigration authorities in India.
