India visa requirements for Swedish citizens

Swedish citizens must obtain a visa before traveling to India, as visa-free entry is not permitted. Most travelers can apply online for an India eVisa, depending on the purpose of their visit, making the process faster and more convenient than applying at an embassy.

iVisa offers four India entry documents for Swedish travelers:

India Tourist eVisa: Designed for tourism, visiting family, or leisure travel. It can be issued with 30-day, 1-year, or 5-year validity, with stays typically limited to 30 or 90 days per visit, depending on the option selected.
India Business eVisa: For business-related activities such as meetings or conferences. It is usually valid for 1 year with multiple entries, allowing stays of up to 180 days per visit.
India Medical eVisa: For travelers seeking medical treatment in India. It is typically valid for 60 days from arrival and allows triple entry for medical-related visits.
India e-Arrival Card: A mandatory digital entry form that collects your personal details, passport information, and travel plans before arrival in India.

General India visa requirements for Swedish travelers are:

Sweden passport valid for at least six months from the arrival date
Passport-style photo and scanned passport bio page
Travel itinerary and accommodation details
Return or onward ticket
Proof of sufficient funds
Other supporting documents, depending on purpose/situation

India visa FAQs

What Swedish travelers commonly ask about India visas

Do Swedish citizens need a visa for India?

Yes, Swedish citizens must obtain a visa before traveling to India. The most convenient option is the India eVisa, which can be completed fully online for tourism, business, or medical purposes. However, if you hold an OCI (Overseas Citizen of India) card, you do not need a visa and can travel to India freely.

What is the processing time for an Indian visa for Swedish citizens?

India eVisas are typically processed within 2 to 4 days, depending on the option selected. It’s recommended to apply at least 4 days before travel to allow enough time for approval and any additional checks if needed.

How do validity and stay duration work for India eVisas?

This is an important distinction to understand. The validity refers to the length of time your visa is valid, while the stay duration refers to the length of time you can remain in India per visit. For example, a 1-year Tourist eVisa allows multiple entries over 1 year, but each stay is usually limited to 90 days. A 30-day Tourist eVisa allows a stay of up to 30 days from the date of arrival. You must adhere to both limits to avoid overstaying.

How long can Swedish citizens stay in India?

The permitted stay depends on the visa type. Tourist eVisas allow stays of up to 30 or 90 days per visit, depending on the option selected. Business eVisas typically allow stays of up to 180 days per visit, while Medical eVisas allow stays of up to 60 days. Overstaying can lead to fines or future travel restrictions.

Are there any restrictions on where Swedish citizens can enter India with an eVisa?

Yes. India eVisas are valid only at designated airports and seaports, not at all border crossings. If you try to enter through a land border or an unapproved port of entry, your eVisa will not be accepted.

Travelers must plan their arrival and departure through approved entry points to avoid issues when entering India.

Can Swedish citizens extend their stay in India?

India eVisas are generally not extendable or convertible. If you need to stay longer, you must leave India before your permitted stay ends and apply for a new visa or a different visa type if eligible.
