Watch out for
Visa on arrival at selected airports is available only to nationals of Japan, South Korea and certain UAE nationals; it is not a general option for other travellers. [2]
The Government of India does not authorise agents or intermediaries to charge for emergency visas, express visas, e-Visas or the eArrival card, so apply only through official government websites. [1] [2]
The eArrival Card is arrival information only and is not a visa; you still need a valid visa or eVisa to enter. [5]
