India gets e‑visa to Belarus as Minsk plans direct flights from Mumbai and Goa

The Indian government has announced that its citizens will be eligible for electronic visas to travel to Belarus, simplifying the entry process for tourists and business travelers alike. The e‑visa facility is expected to be operational shortly, allowing applicants to apply online without visiting a consulate.

In a related development, officials in Minsk have disclosed plans to introduce direct air links between Belarus and two major Indian cities – Mumbai and Goa. While exact launch dates have not been confirmed, the proposed routes aim to cater to growing demand for leisure and trade travel between the two nations.

The combined rollout of e‑visa access and direct flights is likely to boost tourism, encourage investment, and strengthen cultural ties, offering Indian travelers a new European destination with easier connectivity.
