Delhi IGI Airport reduces immigration time with new e-visa desks

Indira Gandhi International Airport, New Delhi: Great news for foreigners flying in with e-visa! In order to cater to the increasing number of foreigners flying in for tourism, business purposes or on medical grounds, at least 14 new dedicated e-visa counters are being set up at the arrival terminal of the capital city’s Indira Gandhi International (IGI) airport. The move will help foreigners by reducing their waiting time at the immigration counters at the airport by half, according to an HT report. Every day, at least 2,500 foreigners fly into IGI airport. Out of them, nearly 45 per cent are e-visa holders, according to senior immigration officers. Currently, there are 32 e-visa dedicated counters at the arrival terminal of the airport. However, the department plans to set up 14 more e-visa dedicated counters, which are likely to be functional by the month of September this year.
