Explore the five recorded questions, answers and sources for this pathway.

Official link

What medical treatment/purpose does the route cover and which applicant role does it address: patient, donor or another medical purpose?

The official e-Visa page includes an e-Medical Visa for e-Ayush purpose and describes medical treatment as including treatment under Indian systems of medicine.

See recorded sources

What acceptance, appointment, referral, treatment plan or healthcare-provider documentation is important?

For e-Ayush medical treatment, the page requires a copy of the concerned Indian hospital's letterhead letter including the date or tentative date of suggested admission.

How must treatment costs, living costs and insurance be demonstrated?

E-Visa conditions require a return or onward journey ticket and sufficient money to spend during the stay in India; no separate treatment-cost or insurance rule is stated.

Limits of the record
  • Source does not separately address treatment costs or health insurance.

Can a carer/companion accompany the patient? Who qualifies and what separate/linked permission applies?

A companion may come on an e-Medical Attendant Visa for the e-Ayush Attendant purpose; only two e-Medical Attendant Visas are granted against one e-Medical Visa (patient). The official source does not state who qualifies as a companion.

Limits of the record
  • Who qualifies (relationship) is not stated.

How long can the patient stay, what happens if treatment continues longer, and what official extension or follow-up mechanism exists?

The official e-Visa portal lists document requirements for e-Medical "for e-Ayush purpose" and gives e-Medical/e-Medical Attendant applicants a window from at least four days before arrival to 120 days in advance. Its medical-category table displays one year from arrival with multiple entries, while its FAQ says 60 days from first arrival for e-Medical. The source does not reconcile the two duration statements for the Ayush-purpose variant. The portal states the general e-Visa rule that it is non-extendable and non-convertible.

Limits of the record
  • The same official portal contains unreconciled one-year and 60-day duration wording; a definitive permitted stay and any specific exception to the general no-extension rule are not demonstrated by this capture. The visa issued to an individual must be checked.

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
