Further information for British nationals accessing
airports in relation to the coronavirus (COVID-19)
pandemic.
On 24 March, Prime Minister Modi announced a three week
lockdown across India from midnight on 25 March. Strict
restrictions on movement are now in place unless for an
essential purpose.
We are working with the Indian authorities and airlines
to support British nationals who want to leave India
and return to the
UK.
Once flights have been confirmed, travellers should
leave plenty of time to get to the airport as movement
may be more difficult than normal. You should make sure
you are able to show authorities:
- proof of a booked flight (a boarding pass if
possible)
- your passport
- a (printed, if possible) copy of
the British
movement letter (PDF, 330KB, 1
page) issued by the British High
Commission confirming that you should be allowed to
travel
