Extending Stay on 30-day Max Stay Visa

MattFS218 · Dec 10th, 2006, 11:16

I know someone who has a Chinese Passport and was issued a 30-day maximum stay visa. What is the procedure for extending it while in India or does she need to go to SriLanaka?

I am yet to meet anyone - who could extend their visa's while in India. Its best to fly out to Colobo OR Bangkok than to deal with the Indian bureaucracy!

There is no facility to extend a tourist visa, except in case of genuine emergency. Wanting to stay longer does not count

The "going to Sri Lanka" bit is to get a NEW visa, not to renew one. Your friend needs a new visa. Whether or not this can obtained in Colombo by a Chinese national on a 30-day visa is anyone's guess.
