scotts visas

1.  Passport valid for a minimum of six months with at least 2 blank pages.

2.  Two recent identical passport-size colour photos.

3.  Completed application form (see below).

For the 48 hour service we need your documents by 10am in order to apply on the same day. The visa will be ready two working days later at approximately 2pm.

If the documents arrive after 10am, it may still be possible to apply the same day, but this will incur a supplementary fee.

The Consular fees quoted above include the embassy outsourcing fee.

If either the applicant, or their parents, were born in Pakistan, they will need to provide extra documentation. Please call/email us for the up to date requirements.

Those holding multiple entry tourist visas must allow 2 months between exiting and re-entering India and have to wait 1 month after its expiry date before being able to apply for their next tourist visa.

The application form has to be filled in online. Before doing so, you will need to have to hand: your passport details, your address including post code in India, the names, addresses including post codes, and phone numbers of two UK-based referees, and the same for two Indian referees (if you don’t know anyone in India, you can put the details of the hotels you are staying in, and if you are only staying in one hotel then put the same details twice); your parents’ places of birth.

After clicking through to the form below, please click Create an Online Visa Application. On the next page, there are five questions, please answer:

On the next page, please select Tourist as the category of visa, 6M for the duration, and M (multiple) for the type of entry unless you are visiting India twice on the same trip (eg India-Nepal-India), in which case please select D (double).

When applying for the D-type, you will also need to supply a detailed itinerary. 

Although the M-type is a muiltiple-entry visa, please note that with this visa you cannot return to India within two months for a second visit.

For any question which does not apply to you, such as Restricted Area, please type NA. For your sponsor, you can use one of your UK referees.

After clicking submit at the end of entering the required information, choose yes or no as to whether you want to enter another application and continue. On the next screen, click "Agree" and continue. On the next screen, it is advisable to make a note of the "Web Reference No". On the next screen, choose "download/print" and the same on the one after that.

Please do not click on Make a Payment, or Schedule an Appointment – we do these for you. Finally, print the form and sign it.

If you have any problems with the form, or your printer runs out of ink, or anything else, please contact us as everything is solvable.
