Question
Do you need a Visa?
Answer
All US citizens travelling to India need a VISA. The simplest option is the e-Visa which can be applied for online at— https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/. While applying, you’ll need to ensure that your passport is valid for at least six months from your date of arrival and has at least two blank pages.
