Indian Medical Visa for Azerbaijan Citizens

What does the visa cost?

The Government of India sets the fee. It is shown and paid online during an e-Medical application, or paid at the Embassy for a regular visa.

How does the e-Medical visa work?

1. On indianvisaonline.gov.in, the patient fills in the application and attaches the hospital's letter and the passport bio page.
2. The decision takes about three working days and arrives by email as an Electronic Travel Authorization, which the patient shows at immigration in India.

What are the steps for a regular medical visa?

1. The patient completes the online form on indianvisaonline.gov.in and prints it.
2. The patient takes the printed form and the documents to the Embassy of India in Baku.

Which documents does the Embassy of India in Baku ask for?

• The online application form, printed and signed, with a recent photograph
• The passport, valid for at least six months, with a copy
• A referral letter and medical reports from the patient's doctor or hospital in Azerbaijan
• The Indian hospital's invitation letter
• Proof of funds for the treatment and stay, such as a bank statement or a sponsor's letter
• For an attendant, proof of relationship with the patient

Which visa suits which patient?

The e-Medical visa suits a patient who wants the whole application online, with no visit to the Embassy. The e-Medical visa is valid for 60 days from first arrival in India. More than one entry is allowed. Those who would rather apply face to face file the regular medical visa form and documents at the Embassy themselves. If treatment runs longer than the visa, the hospital and Jivo help the patient extend it on the e-FRRO portal.
