    Immigration (India Entry).

    We help foreign nationals and their Indian employers or hosts with the visa, registration and tax identity steps needed to come to India for business or work. That covers choosing between business and employment visas, preparing applications, FRRO registration and visa extensions under the Immigration and Foreigners Act, 2025, and PAN applications on the forms that replaced Form 49AA.

    1. Employment Visa Support

      Foreign nationals coming to work for an Indian entity need an Employment (E) visa from an Indian Mission abroad; India does not issue a separate work permit.

    2. Business Visa Advisory

      A Business (B) visa, or an e-Business visa for eligible nationalities, lets foreign nationals visit India for meetings, sales, setting up a venture, board meetings, recruitment or short technical visits, but not for employment.

    3. PAN for Foreign Nationals

      Foreign nationals and foreign companies need a Permanent Account Number (PAN) to invest, earn income, open bank accounts or file tax returns in India.

    4. FRRO Registration Support

      Foreign nationals on long-term visas must register with the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO) or Foreigners Registration Officer after arriving in India.

    5. Employment Visa Extension

      India does not issue a separate work permit: a foreign employee's permission to work comes from the Employment visa, which can be extended in India through the e-FRRO portal.
