India Visa · Quick Answer

What Do I Do If My India eVisa Is Not Received by Email?

First, check the e-Visa status on indianvisaonline.gov.in using your application ID and passport number — the portal shows the live status even if email is delayed. If it shows approved, download the eVisa directly from the portal. Check your spam folder and confirm the email address you entered is correct.

What if the status is still pending after 4 days?

Check for a "returned" status requiring re-upload; if genuinely stuck, contact the portal support.
