DELHI – India will implement a tourist visa-on-arrival scheme for citizens from Finland, Japan, Luxembourg, New Zealand and Singapore from this Friday, January 8, and will continue to issue these visas for a year on an ‘experimental basis’.

The visa on arrival is aimed at foreign tourists who plan their trips at short notice.

Visas are also obtainable in advance through normal channels.

The visas have a maximum validity of 30 days with a single entry facility which will be given initially by the immigration officers at Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Kolkata airports.
