Applying for an Indian visa while travelling

Thedidgeridude · Jun 8th, 2008, 22:44

Is it possible to get an Indian visa while travelling in another country? Can I go to any Indian embassy in any country and apply for an Indian visa?

I'm sure this question will have been answered in one of the many other threads in this forum.

I was hoping to apply for my Indian tourist visa whilst in Oman as we are travelling from UK to India overland and Oman is our last stop before Delhi so this would give us the longest amount of time on one 6-month visa, but I have just been informed by my Uncle who lives in Muscat that it is not possible to get a visa from the Indian Embassy if you are in Oman on a tourist visa (i.e. not a resident). This kind of makes sense as you normally need to give proof of address to apply for visas so if you are just a tourist there is no way for them to check. So it looks like we have to get the visa in London first and then only have 3 months left on it once we enter India
