UAE passports should have a minimum validity of six months remaining for visas on arrival. Such visitors should not have residency or be employed in India.

The visa-on-arrival scheme will not be available to UAE nationals visiting India for the first time. They must apply for an e-visa or paper visa at Indian consular posts.

Emiratis have the option to fill the form on arrival. The format of the physical form will also be available from the airlines onboard the flight.
