Visa for treatment in India

  • Your hospital writes the letter. The application needs a letter from the hospital in India, on its letterhead, with your admission date. Ask the hospital for it once you have a treatment plan. We do not issue it.
  • Up to 2 people can travel with the patient on attendant visas linked to the patient's.
  • Passport valid for at least six months when you apply.
  • On the e-Visa route, apply 4 to 120 days before you arrive.
  • How long it lasts: confirm when you apply. The official page gives both one year and 60 days for the same visa, so we do not state either.

We checked 20 passports against India's official pages (10 Sep 2026): 19 have a verified route; for 1 the official sources disagree. India medical visa: rules, documents and fees by passport

How long patients usually stay

Published guidance for the procedures priced above, where the sources agree. Counted from the operation, not from discharge.

How treatment in Mumbai is usually paid for

  • Cash-pay patients and the global Indian diaspora combining treatment with family visits.
  • Gulf (GCC) sponsorship and insurer programmes.
  • International private insurance with direct billing at accredited chains.

National insurance that may cover treatment here

  • Maldives. Aasandha: Refers patients to empaneled Indian hospitals when treatment isn't available at home. Official site

Cross-border insurance coverage is never automatic. It depends on your eligibility, a formal referral, procedure limits, and each scheme's current rules, which change. Always confirm with your national insurer and the hospital before you travel or commit.

Your care journey to Mumbai, from your city

A sourced treatment range from the table above, plus flights from your city, a room near the hospital after care, food and local transport for the patient and any companion. Each line carries its source. The passport picker below is separate: your city only suggests one.

Choose your city to price the flight. The stay, food and local transport lines are shown once an origin is chosen, so the table is always for a whole journey. Nothing is priced until you choose.

Plan the whole journey

This is information, not advice. The hospital and the government of India decide.

Please read: TravelVulture is an information and trip-planning service, not a hospital, clinic, insurer, or medical provider. We do not give medical advice, arrange treatment, or set prices. Everything here is to help you plan and budget a trip. Confirm all treatment plans, prices, and insurance directly with an accredited hospital's international patient office.

Procedure figures are your own quote, or an indicative range from published sources; always confirm the real price in writing with the hospital. This is not a bill or an offer. How estimates work

TravelVulture is an information and discovery service, not a medical provider, hospital, or insurer. We do not give medical advice or arrange treatment, and we do not endorse any hospital. Accreditation lapses on a fixed cycle, always re-verify a hospital's current status on the official registry (JCI: jointcommission.org, NABH: nabh.co) and confirm all prices, treatment plans, and insurance coverage directly with the hospital's international patient office before making any decision or travelling.
