It has been brought to our notice that a number of fake visa websites are operating on the internet , claiming to provide e-Tourist visas services to visa applicants. In order to mislead applicants, some of these websites have created images and home page templates mimicking the GoI websites for e-Tourist visa applicants. A few prominent fraudsters are listed below:
i. e-visaindia.com
ii. indianvisaonline.org.in
iii. e-touristvisaindia.com
iv. indiavisa.org.in
It is advised that the correct website is indianvisaonline.gov.in. Applicants are requested not to rely on any other website for e-Tourist visa services. |

Recently I have placed
an order with onlinepassportphoto.com, I must say it was a very
smooth process. They are very fast at responding to your inquiries,
or if you wish they can answer your questions on phone. So the
experience I had with onlinepassportphoto.com was outstanding.
I say this because in the past, I have gotten many passport pictures
and they were very poor quality. In my opinion,this website is
the best out there, no one will be able to beat their service
or price. I assure you,you will receive wonderful passport pictures!
