Indian Convention Promotion Bureau (ICPB) had been persistently following up with the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India on the need for grant of Conference Visa.
Ministry of Tourism has informed that revised instructions have been issued by the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India vide circular number No 25022/8/2018-FCC, dated February 28, 2018, relating to the grant of Conference Visa to foreign nationals coming to India to attend international conferences / seminars / workshops.
The notification from the Ministry of Home Affairs is self-explanatory. This will certainly help ICPB bring in more number of international conferences to India in the future.
