To facilitate access, the Indian government has introduced a system of<strong>e-Visa<\/strong>This will revolutionise the administrative procedures that are often perceived as complex. However, this electronic visa does have some drawbacks <strong>limitations<\/strong>including the procedures for entering the country by road <strong>terrestrial<\/strong>. Understanding how these rules work and the opportunities they offer is essential for any traveller wishing to fully explore this enchanting territory.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>India is a fascinating destination for travellers from all over the world, attracting explorers in search of adventure and cultural discovery. With the introduction of the e-Visa, access to Indian territory has become simpler, particularly for those planning to return by land after an initial entry by air or sea. This article looks at the details of the Indian e-Visa, the authorised entry points and the options available for returning by land.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>India's e-Visa system has been designed to simplify entry formalities. Holders of this electronic visa can enter the country by air or sea. However, a crucial aspect to consider is that on first entry, they cannot enter India by land. This restriction is essential to understand for those wishing to explore the land borders with neighbouring countries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Authorised airports and seaports<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>For travellers arriving in India with an e-Visa, a number of options are available. <strong>international airports<\/strong> have been designated as accepted points of entry. These airports include major cities such as Delhi, Mumbai and Chennai, as well as less-frequented destinations such as Goa and Varanasi, offering passengers a wide range of options. India has also opened several <strong>seaports<\/strong> to e-Visa holders, including the ports of Mumbai, Cochin and Port Blair, which is particularly suitable for cruise passengers.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Understanding the limitations of e-Visa<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>The limitations of the e-Visa are important to bear in mind. The restriction on entry by land applies only to the first entry. This means that travellers who have already stayed in India with an e-Visa can subsequently use a land checkpoint for their return. Land checkpoints remain options if they made their initial entry by air or sea, opening up interesting prospects for those wishing to rediscover India from its borders. For more information on the benefits of e-Visa, please consult <a href=\"https:\/\/www.evisa.net.in\/en\/article\/evisa-benefits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this article<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conditions for single and multiple entries<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>It is essential to clarify that travellers who have obtained an e-Visa can make multiple entries into the country, provided they comply with the terms and conditions laid down by the Indian authorities. This means that those with a double or multiple entry e-Visa, who have already made an initial entry by air or sea, have this additional flexibility to explore India and return via a land route.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exit and entry procedures<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Although land entry is subject to regulations, e-Visa holders have greater flexibility when leaving India. They can leave the country by air, land, sea or rail. This flexibility is a real advantage for explorers wishing to continue their journey to other neighbouring countries without being restricted by their type of visa. For example, travellers wishing to combine their stay in India with a trip to Nepal will first have to enter India by plane or boat, and can then cross the border on foot or by vehicle.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Towards the development of land-based entrances<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>As the e-Visa system continues to evolve, it is expected that India will gradually expand the possibilities for entry by land. Discussions are underway regarding the opening of new rail checkpoints, which should represent a significant step forward for travellers wishing to discover the richness of overland India.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Practical information for travellers<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p>Before planning a trip to India again, it is advisable to check the latest information on <strong>e-Visas<\/strong> and their regulations.
