Indians tourists with Georgian e-visa sent back – The Asian Age<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\nValid Visa holders of USA, UK, Japan, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Israel, South Korea, Schengen, and GCC countries can stay up to 90 days every 180 days. I entered Georgia with my US visa twice and never had any issues.<\/p>\n
Note: However, there have been many cases where those holding valid residency of GCC countries have been denied access without assigning any reason, especially if they are citizens of India and Pakistan.<\/em><\/p>\nNotes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Our bags were scanned and searched as we came from Turkey<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
13. Maldives<\/h4>\n
Honestly, I find the Maldives a little overrated and not worth it. (but that’s a whole other article). Indians get 90 days visa-free to the Maldives.<\/p>\n
14. Qatar<\/h4>\n
If I’m ever flying across the world, eg Asia to Europe, Asia to the Americas, etc. Qatar is my favorite transit stop. Why? Well for starters Qatar Airways is a great airline (tied with Emirates for me) and on top of that if your transit time in Qatar is more than 8 hours you get a free 4-star hotel stay.<\/p>\n
So basically you can turn your transit as a free stopover. Qatar Airways will cover everything including transport to and from the hotel, the hotel stays as well as give you money to use in the hotel for your meals. Almost every country has visa-free access to Qatar including Indians who get 30 days.<\/p>\n
Note: It\u2019s now $23\/night for the hotel room.<\/p>\n
15. Sri Lanka<\/h4>\n
Despite the headlines you may read, Sri Lanka is safer than the media may have you believe (I was in Sri Lanka during the recent explosions)<\/p>\n
I first learned to surf when I was in Sri Lanka and also spent a month biking around. Indians get 30 days multiple entry visa for Sri Lanka, once they apply for the ETA (takes about 10 mins to process).<\/p>\n
16. Tunisia<\/h4>\n
Ever wanted to explore the Sahara Desert or live in a cave? Well head down to Tunisia and you’ll get to experience a mix of Arab and French culture. Indians get 90 days visa-free access to Tunisia.<\/p>\n
17. Hong Kong<\/h4>\n
Indians can apply for an Electronic Travel Authorization and get 14 days in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n
<\/span>Countries I Traveled Thanks To My US Visa<\/span><\/h3>\nOne of the biggest advice I have for most people who want to travel long term is to try and get a long term visa from a country like the USA or UK. That visa basically makes your passport double the strength. I have a 10 year US visa that I got a long time ago and that made the below countries possible without a visa.<\/p>\n
18. Albania<\/h4>\n
Visa-free for a maximum stay of 90 days within 180 days for valid visa holders or residents of the Schengen Area member states, the UK and US, subject to the visa being used at least once before.<\/p>\n
Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Never been asked for an outbound flight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
19. Bosnia and Herzegovina<\/h4>\n
National visa may be substituted with a valid multiple-entry visa issued by an EU or Schengen Area member state or USA.<\/p>\n
Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Had to show my an outbound flight.<\/li>\n
- Was interrogated and had my bags searched.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
20. Turkey<\/h4>\n
Istanbul is an incredible city and one of my favorite cities in the world. I’ve been to Turkey 3 times. Indians can get an eVisa for 30 days if they hold valid visa or residence permit issued by one of the Schengen member countries, US, UK, or Ireland.<\/p>\n
21. Montenegro<\/h4>\n
You get 30 days in Montenegro with a US visa but if you leave and come back you get another 30. I spent 2 months in Montenegro doing this.<\/p>\n
Ps. I’ll only be updating this article once a year so it may be out of date based on when you read it.<\/p>\n
