How to apply for Indian Medical eVisa

The Indian medical visa application process has evolved significantly in 2025, offering a streamlined electronic system for international patients seeking treatment in India. We at iVisa understand the importance of a smooth visa process when planning medical treatment abroad, which is why we've developed an efficient system to handle your application.

Understanding the Indian medical visa requirements

The Indian Medical e-Visa is an electronic-based travel document that grants access to India to all visitors wishing to receive medical treatment in the country. This document can only be used for medical reasons, and these treatments or procedures must be authorized by a recognized medical center in India.

With the Medical Visa you will have sixty (60) days to stay in India with the chance to visit three (3) times during that period. We know it can be frustrating to obtain your document because of the tedious paperwork, so let us help you.
