Visa & Entry

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.

Verify entry requirements with official sources before travel.
Getting from DEL

Airport Express Metro from T3 to New Delhi Railway Station (18–20 min, ₹60) runs 5am–11:30pm. T1 (domestic departures) has a free shuttle to T3 for the metro. Prepaid taxi booths in arrivals offer fixed fares; the New Delhi railway area is ₹400–600.Ola and Uber are reliable from DEL and often cheaper than prepaid taxis. Delhi traffic is severe; plan 60–90 minutes for surface transport during peak hours even though the airport is only 15 km from Connaught Place. NH-48 expressway provides the main access road.

New Delhi Climate

Semi-arid climate with extreme seasonal variation. Summers (April–June) are extremely hot (38–46°C). Heat affects ground crew capacity but flights operate normally. Monsoon season (July–September) brings heavy rain and severe thunderstorms that frequently cause delays and diversions. Dust storms (andhi) precede monsoon onset in May–June and reduce visibility to near zero within minutes.

Dense fog is the most disruptive winter condition. December and January bring persistent cold fog (5–10°C with near-zero visibility) that can shut down operations for hours each morning. Delhi is one of the foggiest major airports in Asia during this period. Autumn (October–November) and spring (February–March) are the most flight-stable windows.
