India Visa · Quick Answer

Can I Track My India eVisa Application Status?

Yes. On indianvisaonline.gov.in, use the "Check Visa Status" feature with your application ID and passport number to see whether your e-Visa is under review, approved, or returned for correction. Status updates also arrive by email. A "returned" status means you must re-upload a document — fixing it fast restarts the clock sooner.

Check status at least once a day after applying. If the status is "returned", fix the flagged upload immediately — each rejection restarts the 72-hour processing window.
