Planning an international trip but don’t want to deal with long visa processes and paperwork?
That’s where visa on arrival countries for Indians come in.
These destinations allow Indian passport holders to get a visa at the airport (or with very simple formalities), making international travel easier, faster, and more affordable — especially for first-time travelers.
In this guide, we’ll cover the best budget-friendly visa on arrival countries, why they’re ideal for Indian travelers, and things to know before planning your trip.
What Is Visa on Arrival?
A visa on arrival (VOA) means you don’t need to apply for a visa months in advance. Instead, the visa is issued when you land at the destination airport.
Usually, you’ll need:
- A valid passport (6+ months validity)
- Return flight ticket
- Hotel booking
- Proof of sufficient funds
Compared to traditional visa applications where you submit documents to an embassy weeks in advance, visa on arrival is much simpler and quicker. The entire process happens at the airport counter — sometimes taking just 15-30 minutes.
This approach is ideal for first-time international travelers intimidated by visa processes, those on tight schedules, last-minute trip planners, and budget travelers looking for straightforward solutions.
