Visa guidance for Turkmenistan passport holders

Confirm your route before applying

Confirm whether passport holders from Turkmenistan are eligible for the India e-Visa before applying.

We have not confirmed the current e-Visa position for Turkmenistan, so check your own nationality on the Government of India e-Visa portal before starting an application. If Turkmenistan appears there, the e-Medical Visa is applied for online and is valid for 365 days from arrival with multiple entries. If it does not appear, a regular medical visa must be applied for through the Indian mission or its authorised visa application centre, which takes longer. Either route requires a letter from the treating hospital in India stating the date or tentative date of admission, so arrange the hospital first. If you tell us your nationality when you enquire, a care advisor will confirm the correct route for you.

We have not been able to confirm this nationality against the Government of India e-Visa portal, so nothing here should be treated as settled. Check your own position on the official portal, or send us an enquiry and a care advisor will confirm the route that applies to your passport before you book anything.

We looked for this nationality on the Government of India e-Visa portal on 22 September 2026 and could not confirm its position. Visa rules change, so confirm before you book travel.

  • Recent passport-style digital photograph
