1. How long do applications usually take to be approved?

The maximum application processing time is 72 hours: That’s just 3 days. And when you apply with Evisa Express, times are often much quicker. Our average application processing time is only 51 hours. So whether you’re traveling for business or pleasure, feel certain that you’ll get your eVisa to India quickly and securely.

2. How can I check my application status?

You can check your application status at any time through Evisa Express’s secure website.

3. It’s already been 60 hours! Is this taking too long? Can’t you do something?

Don’t worry! Though it’s true that our average processing time is 51 hours, it’s perfectly normal for applications to take 60 hours or longer. The maximum time you’ll have to wait for a result is 72 hours.

After our team of eVisa experts goes over your application, we submit it to the Indian government for approval. At that point, the process is out of our hands; approval time depends on the Indian government. Remember, though, that our customer support team is available 24/7 should you need to reach out.

4. This is taking too long! Should I resubmit my application?

No! Under no circumstances resubmit your application, especially not within 72 hours of submission. Having duplicate applications will make the process take even longer, or halt processing altogether. It’s best to wait until you receive your decision. Chances are, the decision will be positive: Our application success rate to India is 96%.

5. I’m now worried that some of the information on my application wasn’t correct.

One of the best reasons to apply with Evisa Express is that our team of eVisa experts goes over your application with a fine-toothed comb before it is submitted to the Indian government. We check for inaccuracies, and any information that needs to be updated, added, or corrected. If we find anything that needs fixing, we reach out to the applicant immediately for corrections.

6. I’m now worried that of the documents I uploaded wasn’t the right one.

Have no fear – the Evisa Express team is on the lookout for incorrect documentation. It’s our job to locate inaccuracies in the application and uploaded documentation, and to reach out to the applicant for corrections if we need them. If you’ve uploaded an incorrect document, you’ll have the opportunity to send us the correct one before we submit your application to the Indian government.

7. How will I know when my eVisa has been approved?

Once your eVisa has been approved, you’ll receive an immediate notification at the email you submitted in your application. A copy of your eVisa itself will be attached to the message.

Once you receive your eVisa, print it out and carry it with you when you enter India. Travel authorities may want to see it. It’s also a good idea to carry a copy of your return/onward ticket, as well as proof of sufficient income to sustain you on your trip.
