Can I use an Indian eVisa 6 months after its issuance date for a visit?
My friend has been issued an eTV from India which is valid for one year with a multiple entry. The visa was issued in April 2019. However, he could not travel according to the planned dates.
The new travel date is set to be November 2019 which is 6 months after the date of issuing the visa. Would that be a problem at the immigration in India? Because I am aware of cases that, in different countries, they deny entry for those who did not activate their visas in due course.
Can you please advise on this?
