Visa

All non-Indian-citizens are required to have an Indian visa to enter the country. Allow yourself sufficient time (say 2-3 weeks) to procure an appropriate visa from your nearest Indian consulate. There are several Indian consulates worldwide. Indian consulates in the continental US ( http://www.indianembassy.org/) are located in Washington D.C., New York, Chicago, Houston, and San Francisco. Please visit this site for more information including an online copy of the application form for Indian visa.

We are currently in the process of obtaining clearance from the ministry for the conference. Once that is done the conference attendees can apply for a VISA.

Visa Request Process

Over the past several years the obtaining of a visa has become more complex requiring more attention, energy and time. Additionally, embassies have different requirements. Some may request:

1. A letter from MobiHoc 2017 verifying intentions of conference participant
2. Confirmation that the paper was accepted
3. A receipt that conference fees have been paid in full
4. Appearance or interview by conference participant

To request a visa letter please provide the following information:

1. Conference/workshop title, date and location
2. The amount of fees paid by the requestor
3. Your intention as either a participant, presenter, committee member, speaker, panelist, etc
