How to Get an Indian Medical Visa – Process & Personal Experiences
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for information on how to apply for an Indian medical visa. A close family member needs to travel to India soon for medical treatment, and we’re trying to understand the full process for obtaining the right visa.
India has become a popular destination for medical tourism, thanks to its advanced healthcare facilities and lower costs compared to many Western countries. We came across this helpful site: ινδική ιατρική βίζα
, which explains the requirements and offers an online application for the Indian medical eVisa.
Here’s what I’ve learned so far:
📝 You need a valid passport (with at least 6 months of validity)
🏥 A medical letter or official appointment confirmation from a recognized Indian hospital is required
🌐 The application is completely online, and approval usually takes 3–5 working days
🎫 The medical visa often allows for up to 60 days stay and can be extended in India in some cases
Has anyone here gone through this process before?
How long did your approval take?
Did you face any issues during immigration or while entering India with the medical visa?
Any tips or experiences would be greatly appreciated — especially if you used the same website!
