India announces a free 30-day e-visa facility for Russian tourists to promote travel and strengthen bilateral relations between the two nations. The initiative was unveiled following strategic talks between Prime Minister Narendra Modi and President Vladimir Putin.
Under this facility, Russian nationals can apply for both e-tourist visas and group tourist visas with no processing fee, with applications processed within 30 days. The move is expected to boost inbound tourism from Russia and further deepen the longstanding partnership between India and Russia.
