goFLY Limited — an IATA-certified (42337956) visa processing agency in Bangladesh since 2017 — supports IVAC (Indian Visa Application Centre) filing for Tourist, Visit, Business, and Medical categories. We also provide advisory services for Student, Conference, and Entry (X) visas.
Use this guide to complete your Indian visa for Bangladeshi — commonly searched as indian visa for bangladeshi and india visa from bangladesh — with step-by-step instructions, checklists, fees, photo specs, and processing time.
Job placement or employer-led work permits. Any agency promising "guaranteed India work visa" without legitimate employer sponsorship is running a scam. goFLY provides visa documentation assistance only.
We declined 50+ visa applications in 2025 during free consultations because those cases had weak documentation or inconsistent travel plans. We would rather lose the sale than take your money for a likely rejection. This honest approach has earned us 90%+ success rate on cases we accept and 70% repeat customers.

Genuine medical emergencies may receive priority processing at mission discretion. Ensure all hospital documentation clearly states the urgency of treatment. goFLY can help expedite documentation for emergency cases — call 01713-289175.
Business visa processing may take longer than tourist visa. Ensure Indian company invitation clearly explains the business relationship and purpose. Vague invitations can cause delays or rejections.
Complete registration with FRRO/FRO within 14 days of arrival. Maintain compliance throughout your course. Visit indianfrro.gov.in for registration. Non-compliance can affect future visa applications.
