India passport: visa-free countries & requirements
29 visa-free destinations · 78 visa on arrival, eVisa, or ETA
Worldwide counts use the full VisaGlance dataset. This page focuses on 60 tracked top destinations; self-country rows are omitted where relevant.
The Indian passport, while holding visa-free access to only 27 destinations, is backed by India's economic scale and one of the world's largest diaspora networks. 31 countries offer visas on arrival, and India's growing geopolitical influence continues to expand diplomatic travel channels.
Visa results start from a historical January 2025 base matrix with limited, documented corrections. A mapped destination-level source provides context only; it does not independently verify a passport-destination result.
