German passport holders need a visa to enter India. The easiest route is the eVisa, which you apply for at indianvisaonline.gov.in. The eTourist Visa costs USD 25 for a 30-day single-entry or USD 40 for a 1-year multiple-entry. A 5-year multiple-entry eVisa runs USD 80. Processing takes 3 to 5 business days. Apply at least a week before travel.
You can also get a traditional sticker visa at the Indian embassy in Berlin or consulates in Munich, Hamburg, or Frankfurt through BLS International. This takes 5 to 10 business days and costs around EUR 82. It makes sense if you need a longer stay or specific visa category.
Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months from your arrival date with at least 2 blank pages. The eVisa is valid at 28 designated airports including Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, and Chennai. You cannot enter on an eVisa at a land border crossing. Keep a printed copy of your eVisa approval with you.
