Start with the official Government of India portal
India currently offers e-Medical visa categories for eligible passport holders, along with e-Medical Attendant categories. The official e-Visa portal states that eligibility depends on nationality and that medical applicants may need a letter from the hospital in India stating the proposed treatment or admission date.
What IndiaMedHealth can help with
- Coordinate the specialist/hospital opinion needed before travel.
- Help obtain the relevant hospital treatment letter or documentation where the hospital provides it.
- Check that the treatment dates and travel plan are logically aligned.
- Coordinate appointments after the visa is approved.
What IndiaMedHealth cannot do
Visa approval is made by the relevant Indian authorities. We cannot guarantee approval, change immigration rules or issue a government visa ourselves.
Important: Do not pay an unofficial 'emergency visa fee' to IndiaMedHealth. The Government of India's official e-Visa advisory says it does not charge an additional emergency/express e-Visa fee.
Before booking flights
- Confirm that the medical visa/entry permission is valid for your passport and purpose of travel.
- Confirm your hospital appointment and likely admission date.
- Allow enough flexibility for investigations that may be repeated after arrival.
- Ask the treating team when return travel is medically reasonable.
