Visa Extension & Conversion

Extend an existing visa or convert it to another category (e.g. X visa to Employment).

Visa extensions and conversions are processed by the FRRO with clearance from the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) where required. The process is document-heavy and any inconsistency can lead to weeks of delay.

We assess eligibility first, prepare the covering letter and supporting documents in the format expected by the FRRO and file the application on the e-FRRO portal, tracking it until approval.

Who needs this service?

Employment, Business, Student, Medical, Research and Entry (X) visa holders who need additional validity, or who need to change the purpose of stay – such as a dependent spouse taking up employment.

Documents required

  • Passport, visa and Residential Permit
  • Category-specific supporting documents
  • Request letter stating reason for extension / conversion
  • Proof of address and photograph
  • MHA / Ministry approvals where required

Requirements may vary by FRRO office and individual circumstances. We confirm the exact list during your consultation.
