Medical Visa from Bangladesh to India

• Individuals seeking medical treatment in India should apply for an Indian medical visa.
• Applicants must select reputable, recognized, and specialized Indian hospitals.
• The patient traveling to India can only be accompanied by two medical attendants. These medical attendants should be blood relatives.
• A non-exhaustive list of medical procedures that are covered by the medical visa includes cardiac treatment, neurology treatment, organ transplants, cosmetic procedures, and treatment for congenital defects and disorders.

A medical visa is a kind of visa that allows the holder to enter a nation in order to receive medical treatment.

1. Many patients from all over the world travel to receive treatment in foreign countries. This could be due to the fact that some surgical treatments/therapies are not available in their home country or because they want to consult a certain specialist who is based in another country.
2. Medical visas usually allow for short-term stays to cover the duration of treatment.
3. Companion visas are also issued by some countries to patients’ companions (usually friends, family, or carers).
4. Medical companions in other countries are granted a different type of visa.
5. Various countries also grant multipurpose visas and travel authorizations that cover both medical and non-medical visits, such as tourism.

• Depending on the country, there are two ways of acquiring a visa for medical purposes.
• Some regions have an online visa system that issues electronic medical visas or short-stay visas, among other things, for medical visits. These digital technologies make it possible for travelers to get a medical visa quickly and easily, without going anywhere.
• In other situations, a medical visa must be applied for in-person at a diplomatic mission (embassy or consulate) of the country where the treatment will be provided.
• Tourists must complete a medical visa application form whether applying online or at an embassy.
• The specific requirements for a medical visa vary from nation to nation.

To justify a medical visa, the following documents are generally required:

• A doctor/hospital/medical professional provides a referral letter declaring that the person requires treatment in the destination country.
• Appointment confirmation from a hospital or research center in the destination country.

If you have an Bangladeshi passport, you can apply for a medical visa if you meet the following requirements:

1. The strict objective for traveling to India is to receive medical treatment.
2. The treatment facility selected is indeed a reputable hospital or healthcare center accredited by the Indian government.
3. As medical attendants, the patient will be accompanied by a maximum of two family members or close associates. Medical attendants will need to apply for a ‘Medical Attendant Visa’ separately.
4. The patient and medical personnel can submit authentic Yellow Fever and Oral Polio Vaccination certificates.

Patients requiring neurosurgery, joint replacements, Kidney transplants, ocular diseases, renal disorders, cardiac issues, congenital disorders, organ transplantations, radiation therapy, plastic surgery, Liver Transplant, and gene therapy will be given preference for a medical visa.
