Pensioner’s holiday of a lifetime… Pensioner’s holiday of a lifetime ruined; 71 year old woman left distraught after travelling to Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport in April 2018 only to be immediately deported owing to problem with her ‘granted’ on-line e-visa. Weeks before travel, the e-visa was completed successfully on-line using this e-visa website. The e-visa was ‘granted’ and the necessary paper e-visa was e-mailed my mother before travel. After 12 hours of travel, and despite having no issues at the UK check-in for her Virgin Atlantic flight from London Heathrow Airport, she was turned away by Immigration at Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport border control as there was a ‘problem’ with her visa; she was told that she would be escorted immediately onto a return Virgin Atlantic flight to London. Distressed and financially out of pocket for the holiday, my mother investigated the problem with her visa on return to the UK. She discovered that, despite having lived in the UK for over 50 years, as British Subject of Irish origin she should not have been granted an online e-visa. How had she managed to travel all the way to India before this error was discovered? In good faith my mother used this website to process her visa, not realising that despite its decidedly similar appearance, it was not the official website recommended by the High Commission of India. This website claims as part of their value added service to re-check visa applications before final submission, asking for a copy of the passengers’ passport and charging an inflated fee for processing the e-visa at the time of application. The official website recommended by the High Commission of India will reject a visa application with this type of error. Therefore there was no concern when the official looking granted e-visa arrived in her mailbox days later. Etaindia.org have subsequently not responded two enquiries regarding the checks they perform before granting on-line e-visas. The moral of the story is PLEASE only to use official routes for your visa to India to avoid devastating emotional and financial consequence.

etaindia saved my daughter's holiday etaindia saved my daughter's holiday. Last night we were in despair - my daughter had booked a flight to India tonight but had not got a visa and was horrified to discover she could not obtain one on arrival. After panicking and then some frantic searching I discovered etaindia who offered a 12 hour turn round on Indian visas. Although this cost twice as much as a standard e-visa there was no choice! We therefore went ahead and filled in the paperwork. and, affter submitting it we received immediate confirmation - which was reassuring. Because time was short, I telephoned their offices twice (using skype) and immediately got a reassuring update. At 11am today I got an email announcing that the visa would be delivered in 4 hours - and it duly arrived at 2pm - remarkable considering yesterday was a Sunday. In 30 minutes my daughter will be leaving for Goa singing the praises of etaindia all the way!!!

Don't panic! They've got it covered GBR passport holder in China needing to be in India within 48 hours... Bad enough position.. On a Friday before a public holiday on Monday. I couldn't have been in a bigger hole but these guys were on it! Within 18 hours of me first having my 'oh ****' moment I had a visa and was good to go. Phone and email communication was friendly and first class - considering I was very stressed. Highly recommended

BIG SCAM BIG SCAM I applied for a simple OCI. I was charged 5 times the amount quoted for a visa that I can't use.
