Methodology
- Rows link to the relevant official portal or embassy. Earlier rows retain their snapshot dates; Egypt, Thailand, Vietnam, Azerbaijan and the US fee entry were checked on 2 October 2026.
- Where sources disagreed, we kept the conservative figure and marked it with "~". Rupee amounts are approximations at mid-2026 exchange rates — the foreign-currency fee is the authoritative one.
- Fees shown are for one adult tourist on a regular Indian passport. Service, biometric and agent charges are called out separately where they materially change the total.
- Visa rules and eligibility can change. Always reconfirm with the official source and your carrier before paying anyone.
