India e-Visa for Australian Citizens | Categories, Stay Limits & How It Works

Australian citizens applying for an Indian visa can complete the entire visa process online — no embassy visit, no Indian Visa Application Centre(IVAC) appointment for short-term travel. The approved Electronic Travel Authorization (ETA) is emailed directly to you once granted.
Three categories are available under the India e-Visa framework. The 'India e-Tourist Visa' comes in 30-day, 1-year, and 5-year options — covering holidays, heritage travel, family visits, and wellness retreats. The 'India e-Business Visa' is valid for one year with multiple entries for trade visits and meetings. The 'India e-Medical Visa' allows triple entry over 60 days for those seeking treatment in India.
For Australian nationals on the 1-year or 5-year e-Tourist Visa, the maximum continuous stay per visit is 90 days, with a total annual cap of 180 days. The Indian e-Visa is non-extendable, non-convertible, and valid only at designated airports and seaports.
