If you’re travelling internationally, Self Declaration Form on the Air Suvidha portal is now mandatory to enter India. Have all your questions regarding where to find the Air Suvidha form, how to fill the form, and when answered here.  

What Is Air Suvidha Form? 

Air Suvidha form is an online contactless solution that was launched in 2020. It cancels out all the hassles involved in one-on-one security checks (to see if people are vaccinated or have the RT-PCR test done), thereby streamlining the process. It promotes a convenient and queue-free air travel solution for passengers flying to India.

Who Needs To Fill The Air Suvidha Form & Where Is It Available?

Whether you have your flights from UK to Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, or any other Indian city, you’ll have to fill out the same Air Suvidha form that is available on the Delhi IGI Airport website. This form is to be filled out to enter India irrespective of where the traveller is coming from and which Indian city the traveller will land.

No. There is no Air Suvidha app that you can download from App Store or Playstore. The only place the form is available is on the Delhi IGI Airport website.

What If I Face Issues While Submitting The Self-Declaration Form?

Filling out the Air Suvidha form can be quite a pain at times. If you face issues while submitting the form without the RT-PCR even if you’re fully vaccinated, clear the cache and cookies and resubmit the form again. This should help. In case it doesn’t, try –
