too big

I wish we could change this to something like China article. Those countries requiring VISA doesnt have to be stated and this is making the article too big.. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visa_requirements_for_Chinese_citizens (srikrishnak (talk) 12:53, 3 December 2013 (UTC))

Burundi

I called the Burundi Embassy in India on 15 June, 2011. Apparently, visa on arrival facility for Indian has been revoked. A prior visa need to be obtained that takes 1 working day. You can reach the embassy at +91-11-46151947. 110.74.220.69 (talk) 04:05, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Brunei

Indian citizens can get 72 hour transit visa on arrival if you have a ticket and itinerary for validation. You need to get a sponsorship from the airline you are flying. The visa charge is 5 Brunei Dollars. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Red Cloudd (talkcontribs) 09:19, 5 August 2014 (UTC)

Malaysia, UAE

I have found Malaysia and UAE no longer issuing visa on arrival to nationals of India but I doubt if anybody else also. --Saki talk 18:03, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

If thats the case, then the map also needs to adjusted accordingly. Someone introduced a dodgey version of an earlier map. Are you sure that the UAE no longer offers arrival visas to Indians (those in possession of a GCC residence permit) ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.39.81.19 (talk) 06:12, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
No, visa will be issued on arrival in the UAE to residents of the GCC Member States. --Saqib Qayyum (talk) 14:41, 3 October 2010 (UTC)
Visa on arrival in most GCC member states depends on the "Occupation" that your residence permit says. They discriminate based on occupation so you have to be an engineer or manager to get visa on arrival. If you have "Clerk" or "Administrative Assistant" on your residence permit you will not get visa on arrival in any GCC states regardless. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 94.200.129.162 (talk) 06:14, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

table cell colour

Some of the table cells have been coloured in pink or green. A legend for the colour code would be helpful. Vedabit (talk) 03:14, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Qatar

Indians get visa on arrival in QATAR by holding 6 moth valid GCC residence visa can extent another 3 months — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.211.137.17 (talk) 11:38, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Egypt

Egypt is only considering to offer visa on arrival to Indians with UK/US visa. It is not offered currently. Looks misleading. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.205.176.200 (talk) 16:03, 14 June 2013 (UTC)

Regions

Is it best to separate each continent by region, for example schengen, or EU for Europe. Then for Asia, we have ASEAN and GCC.

Other passport pages have a similar layout to that mentioned above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.127.252.4 (talk) 09:26, 10 November 2013 (UTC)

It wastes the energy on fights if Turkey is in Europe or Asia, if Cyprus is in Europe or Asia etc. so this is a better option.--Twofortnights (talk) 18:03, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

Norway

Is it ripe to edit the norway section after Indian President's annoucement to give visa on arrival to norweigian citizens? http://www.firstpost.com/india/visa-on-arrival-for-norway-nationals-soon-says-president-pranab-mukherjee-1756383.html

Mvineetmenon (talk) 14:22, 14 October 2014 (UTC)
And how will this affect Indian citizens travelling to Norway?--Twofortnights (talk) 21:55, 11 November 2014 (UTC)

Turkey and UAE

Hey folks,

I feel we must edit the map. Both Turkey and UAE offers e-visa to indian citizens under certain conditions. WE should add another colour and fill in those countries as well. (as we did for Maldova) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Av8radi (talkcontribs) 18:03, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Visas are still required, Turkey only allows it to be an OECD visa that eases obtaining of Turkish visa, but that's all.--Twofortnights (talk) 18:51, 8 February 2015 (UTC)

Jordan

Jordan visa is for one week only: We were in Jordan recently(10th October till 20th October'2013) and the whole visa-on-arrival process was confusing. Initially one immigration officer told us that there is no visa-on-arrival for Indians, then another one asked us whether we have any residency proof in USA/UK or gulf. We said no, we are residents of India. We were moved from one counter to other couple of times and then the immigration officer called his manager and the manager came and told us smilingly "Welcome to Jordan and enjoy your stay!". But they stamped our passport for one week whereas we wanted it for 10 days. We told them that the Jordan Embassy had told us that we would get visa-on-arrival for 2 weeks. They wouldn't relent, so we met the manager again. The manager told us not to worry, just go to any police station and extend your visa, it is an easy affair. And if we failed to do that, we would pay a penalty of 1.5 JOD per day per person for the overstay when we return. We were ready with 1000 USD cash per person to show if asked but were never asked for it. Later on when we realized that most of the police in Jordan don't know English, we chose to pay the fine at the immigration office in the airport on return, it was pretty easy. In stead of getting on to the immigration line, go to the counters on the right side of the immigration counters which says "Residency fines or Residency penalty" and pay the fine and then go to the immigration counter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 113.19.80.2 (talk) 08:29, 24 October 2013 (UTC)

Its just a pre requisite to be on a safe side jist like its a pre requisite whenevr u travek to any countu outside ur nation.

Thanks. Tajikistan changed their visa policy then, not sure when. Mozambique according to many sources does not actually allow VoA to citizens of countries that host their embassy. Is the Colombian e-visa conditional? --Twofortnights (talk) 19:07, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
After some checking it seems that the information in Timatic regarding Tajikistan is an omission, it should say for holders of diplomatic or service passports. [1] --Twofortnights (talk) 19:12, 20 February 2016 (UTC)

Hi, we can't do that as that would be original research.--Twofortnights (talk) 16:46, 1 August 2017 (UTC)
