Safety Tips for Your Stay in India

Weather in February February is a great time to visit Kolkata, with pleasant winter weather. Expect 22–28°C during the day, cooler evenings, and low humidity—light layers work best. Visa for India Most international travellers will require a tourist visa. India offers an official e-Visa facility for many nationalities. We recommend applying at least one month in advance to allow for any delays. The official Government of India e-Visa website is: https://indianvisaonline.gov.in New e-Arrival Card for non-Indian nationals flying to India- https://indianvisaonline.gov.in/earrival/ Safety & Practical Tips Keep printed and digital copies of your passport, visa, and flight tickets. Use Uber or hotel-arranged transport within the city; avoid unregistered taxis late at night. Stay aware in crowded areas and keep personal belongings secure. Drink bottled or filtered water only; avoid ice unless from trusted sources. When trying street food, choose busy stalls with freshly prepared items and eat in moderation. Carry small amounts of cash; cards and digital payments are widely accepted. Dress comfortably and modestly, especially at traditional or religious venues. Save hotel details and local emergency contacts on your phone. English is widely spoken in hotels and at the airport. If approached for money or photos, a polite “no, thank you” and walking away is perfectly fine. Medicines to Carry Paracetamol (fever/pain relief) Cold, cough, and throat lozenges Anti-diarrheal tablets & ORS Antacids / indigestion relief Antihistamines (for dust or allergies) Hand sanitizer & antiseptic cream Insect-bite or anti-itch cream Any personal prescription medicines (in original packaging) Getting Around Kolkata Metro & buses: Affordable, connect major areas but can be crowded. Auto-rickshaws & taxis (Uber/Ola): Convenient for short trips. Uber being the safest option. We hope this helps make your journey smooth and comfortable. We look forward to welcoming you to Kolkata.
