Watch out for
Beware of unauthorised agents or intermediaries offering paid 'emergency' or 'express' visa and eArrival card services; the Government of India authorises none of them. [1]
eVisas are issued by the Bureau of Immigration only for limited categories of travellers, so check that your purpose of travel qualifies before applying. [2]
Visa on arrival is available only to nationals of Japan, South Korea and certain UAE nationals at selected airports, so a Hungarian passport holder should not rely on it. [2]
