    I don't know my exact dates yet. Sometimes last week in January to the end or February. Like 40days. I dont want to biy airline tickets or book a airbnb cause i don't know if my visa will be approved or not. In addition i don't want to book a airline ticket last minute it will be too expensive. What order should i do this? Im a US citizen. Plus a last minute airbnb bookings im limiting my choices. Help!

      Valid date is from the date you applied . For example, If you apply on 2nd June, Then we will be granted from the 3rd of June to the 4th of July ( One Month Evisa)

      @@user-hy9id5dt2j You can arrive on the same and the next date or anytime before the visa expires . But a day before or earlier.. Usually I put one day earlier on the applicant. If my flight is on the 20th, I put on the 19th application. To be extra safe.
      IF YOUR VISA IS GOING TO EXPIRED, YOU SHOULD RENEW IT BEFORE TRAVELING. IF CASE, YOU GONNA STAY FOR A WEEK, YOUR VISA SHOULD BE VALID FOR A WEEK TOO.

    How do you do being in India all year? You can get the T1 10 year tourist multiple entry visa and only stay a total of 180 days per year. Within that 180 days you can come and go as many times you want. But not over 180 days!

      @superpoodlehead 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@bjenks ??Really?? I’m confused now. But it’s only 180 days within a calendar year Jan 1-Dec 31, right? You are not supposed to leave and come back in a week if you’ve exceeded your 180 days in that calendar year. Right?
      I used to do that back in earlier years, like you said-because of the “continuous days” rule. Now that is gone since 2022 when the borders opened again. All visas changed.
      The thing is, I’ve had this visa since 2018. I would never had known of the change if I wasn’t on social media in FB groups and TH-cam. The embassy doesn’t notify you. In fact, it wasn’t completely clear in the multiple embassy consulate websites in the USA and India-all the info was different. Even the FRRO hasn’t updated their pages on the websites!
