With the holiday season nearing, Indian travellers are increasingly choosing destinations with simple and fast visa procedures, making spontaneous and last-minute trips easier than ever. Countries offering e-visas, visa-on-arrival, or digital travel authorisations have become especially popular, as they remove uncertainty and help people finalise international plans with minimal preparation.
For quick breaks and unplanned escapes, fast visa approvals play a major role. When combined with short flights from India and good connectivity, these destinations naturally become top choices for travellers looking for convenience and flexibility.
Indonesia, particularly Bali, continues to attract Indian tourists with its 2–3 hour e-visa process and its mix of beaches, café culture, nightlife, and wellness retreats. Thailand remains a favourite thanks to its quick Digital Arrival Card, usually processed within 1–2 hours, offering beaches, shopping, nightlife, and vibrant food experiences perfect for short getaways. Sri Lanka adds to the list with its easy ETA or visa-on-arrival options, making it ideal for beach holidays, tea-country drives, heritage sightseeing, and relaxed vacations.
The UAE, especially Dubai, stays in high demand with a 2–3 day e-visa and excellent flight connections from major Indian cities. Jordan appeals to those interested in history and culture, offering a simple 2–3 day e-visa process and landmarks like Petra, the Dead Sea, and desert landscapes. Malaysia, with its quick Digital Arrival Card processed in a few hours, offers a mix of city adventures, beaches, rainforests, and diverse culinary experiences across Kuala Lumpur, Langkawi, Penang, and Borneo.
Morocco continues to draw travellers seeking rich cultural experiences, though its e-visa takes 5–6 days, offering desert activities, colourful souks, and historic medinas. Kenya is a strong choice for wildlife and safari lovers with a 2–3 day e-visa process, while Ethiopia appeals to heritage and culture seekers with an e-visa or visa-on-arrival option in many cases. Vietnam’s 4–5 day e-visa allows access to beaches, bustling cities, café culture, and famous destinations like Hanoi, Da Nang, Ha Long Bay, and Ho Chi Minh City.
Travel platform Atlys notes that the shift toward such destinations is growing steadily. According to Santosh Hegde, Head of Marketing at Atlys, Indian travellers today prioritise clarity, speed, and certainty in visa processes, especially when planning last-minute holidays.
