On July 13, 2025, the Embassy of India in Kuwait announced that India extended the eVisa facility to Kuwaiti nationals, effective immediately.
The e-Visa is available for a variety of purposes including tourism, business, conferences, medical or traditional medicine (AYUSH) treatment and medical and traditional medicine attendants. The eVisa has a longer duration at a lower visa fee than the consular paper visa, which will, however, continue to be available.
Biometrics are captured at the port of arrival in India, so there is no requirement to visit an Indian consular application center. E-Visa processing generally takes three to four days.
The e-Visa is valid for entry through 32 airports and five seaports, and the holder can exit through any immigration checkpoint.
The Indian e-Visa is available to nationals of a large number of countries
