Watch out for
Only the official portal should be used: India does not authorise any agent or intermediary to charge fees for emergency visas, express visas, eVisas or eArrival cards. [1] [2]
Visa on arrival at selected airports is limited to nationals of Japan, South Korea and certain UAE nationals, so Liberian passport holders must arrange an eVisa before travelling. [2]
The eArrival Card is not a visa and does not replace the visa, eVisa or OCI/eOCI card required for entry. [5]
