Visa to India

Third in our new “recipes” series: the Visa to India

• Original Passport (must have at least 2 blank visa pages).
• One original signed visa application.
• One copy of Austrian ´Meldezettel’.
• 1 recently taken passport photo (51mm x 51mm against a light background, maximum head size 3.5cm).
• 2 Letters of Invitation.
• Conference Organiser Clearance letter.
• Conference Organiser Clarification letter.
• Endorsement Letter from US employer on company letterhead.
• Copy of 3 months of bank statements.
• Copy of CV or resume.
• Flight and Hotel confirmations.
• Visa fee of 101.20 Euros in cash – no credit cards. Please bring extra cash.

Print all the above on 36 pages in A4 format, mourn the loss of a tree, then get psychologically ready to spend some time in a waiting room, at least twice.
Interesting that obtaining a visa to attend a conference is way more complex than a tourist visa.
Enjoy!
