Travelling in from abroad to be with us? Here's everything wrapped up at a glance, so the only thing you need to think about once you land is which outfit to wear first.
Most of our guests joining from overseas will need a visa — a simple e-Visa can be arranged online, or your nearest Indian embassy can issue one. If you carry an OCI card, you're already set — no visa needed, just bring it along with your passport.
Do keep your passport valid for at least six months past your arrival, with two blank pages free, and apply a little ahead of time as processing can take a few weeks.
Official visa guidance →Nothing is mandatory to join the celebrations — only travellers arriving from a country with yellow-fever risk need carry that certificate. It's worth a quick check of recommended jabs a couple of months out, just for your own peace of mind.
Pack some mosquito repellent for the garden evenings, and a light mask if you're sensitive — skies can turn a touch hazy over North India come winter.
Official health guidance →Consider this our best advice, lovingly gathered — please do confirm the finer print for your own nationality closer to the date.
