Do Turkish citizens need a visa for India?

Visa required in advance

Turkish passport holders need a visa for India, arranged before you travel. Depending on the country, that means an online application, a sponsor or agent, or an appointment at a visa centre.

What this means for your trip

Start early. Some countries take the whole application online; others need a visa-centre appointment for fingerprints, and waits can be long in peak season.
Typical documents: application form, photos, bank statements, tax returns, an employment letter, bookings and travel insurance.
If you already hold certain other visas, a simpler route may apply. Check the section below.
