What Is the India e-Medical Attendant Visa?
The e-Medical Attendant visa allows up to two attendants (family members) to travel with an e-Medical visa patient. It shares the patient's 60-day triple-entry validity. Each attendant applies separately and links their application to the patient's e-Medical visa.
