As many as 16 countries provide visa-free entry and 43 countries allow visa-on-arrival facility to Indian ordinary passport holders, the government informed Rajya Sabha (Parliament’s upper house) on March 18, 2021.

The “Government of India has been making efforts to increase the number of countries that provide visa-free travel, visa-on-Arrival and e-visa facility for further easing of international travel for Indians,” said V Muraleedharan, Minister of State in the Ministry of External Affairs in his reply, sharing the above information. “While the issuance of a visa and the visa-related procedure is the sovereign decision of the respective country, the matter regarding easier and liberalised visa policy for Indian nationals is taken up regularly in bilateral meetings/ forums with foreign countries,” he added.

Most of the countries that provide visa-free entry and visa-on-arrival are international tourist destinations–many being island nations–attracting foreign travellers.
