Many of the countries we visit require visas, and while we make every effort to give accurate and up-to-date information, visa requirements change regularly. For the most up-to-date information, we recommend that you contact the relevant embassies or a reputable visa firm.

Please keep in mind that some visas have restricted validity periods, so double-check this before completing your application, especially if you want to apply well ahead of your travel dates.

In recent years, the advent of 'e-visas' has simplified the process for many destinations. We'll let you know whether this is an option for your trip. However, acquiring visas for some countries can still be time-consuming, and you may need to submit your passport to an embassy for many days or weeks. If you expect to need your passport before your travel, please contact us or the visa agency/embassy as soon as possible to avoid delays.

Once your visa is approved, carefully read the information, including the number of entries, entry and leave dates, and validity limits. Embassy errors can occur, and any inaccuracies may affect your ability to enter the destination or continue your trip.

Although we don't offer visa services directly, we can help by providing the required supporting documentation to support your application, such as hotel confirmations or invitation letters. Although we don't recommend any particular agency, our clients in the US and the UK have regularly used UDAAN India. Please let us know if you utilize any of these services.

For the most recent visa information specific to your country, we highly advise visitors with non-UK passports to get in touch with the consulate or embassy that is closest to them.
