MUMBAIThe Front Door to India
Mumbai is big. It’s full of dreamers and hard-labourers, starlets and gangsters, artists and sherfolk and crorepatis (millionaires) and lots and lots of people. It has India’s most prolic lm industry and the largest tropical forest in an urban zone. Mumbai is India’s nancial power house and fashion epicentre. It’s even evolved its own language, Bambaiyya Hindi, which is a mix of…everything
If Mumbai is your introduction to India, prepare yourself. The heart of the city contains some of the grandest colonial-era architecture on the planet but explore a little more and you'll uncover unique bazaars, hidden temples, hipster enclaves and India's premier restaurants and nightlife.
Entry & Exit formalities: Entering India by air or land is relatively straightforward, with standard immigration and customs procedures. A frustrating law barring re-entry into India within two months of the previous date of departure has now been done away with (except for citizens of some Asian countries), thus allowing most travelers to combine their India tour with side trips to neighboring countries.
Visa:Citizens of Australia, Brazil, Cambodia, Cook Islands, Djibouti, Fiji, Finland, Germany, Guyana, Indonesia, Israel, Japan, Jordan, Kenya, Kiribati, Laos, Luxembourg, Marshall Islands, Mauritius, Mexico, Micronesia, Myanmar, Nauru, New Zealand, Niue Island, Norway, Oman, Palau, Palestine, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Republic of Korea, Russia, Samoa, Singapore, Solomon Islands,Thailand, Tonga, Tuvalu, UAE, Ukraine, USA, Vanuatu, and Vietnam are currently granted a 30-day single-entry visa on arrival (VOA) at Mumbai airport.
However, to participate in the scheme, you need to apply online at https://indianvisaonline.gov.infor an Electronic Travel Authority (ETA), a minimum of four and a maximum of 30 days before you are due to travel. The fee is US$60, and you have to upload a photograph as well as a copy of your passport. Travellers have reported being asked for documentation showing their hotel conrmation at the airport, though this is not specied on the VOA website. The VOA is valid from the date of arrival. We can provide you with a letter conrming you will be attending The eTailing India Expo to support your application.
