Expat Confusion as India Stiffens Visa Rules

The unexpected introduction of tougher visa rules in India has thrown thousands of British citizens' travel plans into disarray.

The new plans were issued in November, apparently in response to the arrest in Chicago of a U.S. citizen of Pakistani origin suspected of helping to plan the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks.

Under the old rules, tourists on five- or 10-year visas could stay in India for long periods while being required to leave the country every 180 days, but the new rules mandate that regular visitors must leave the county for at least two months between stays.

Indian officials have verified that they are going forward with the new rules to deter abuse of long-term tourist visas and to align India's regulations with those of other nations.

Nationals from 14 countries qualify for long-term visas, which are frequently used by American and British citizens to circumvent the difficult process of acquiring a business or employment visa.
