* Do you need a visa or other official processing before you can attend
FUDCon? If so, approximately how long does that processing take?
Yes, I need VISA.
Maximum of 5 days if I apply for tourist VISA but I don't have experience
with confference VISA to India.
If I am not wrong, High Commision of India, check for government approved
invitation letter.
(Please check this requirement).
* Include any additional, relevant information.
Department of Immigration Officers question me when I coming and going
back Kolkata in early 2014 for a Mozilla event. Basically they wanted to
know whether I travel to Chennai. I came with tourist VISA which is prety
easy for us to get within 3 days.
They are doing their duty but that's one of the reason I take direct
flight to Mumbdai insteam of having one-stop.
Due to the recent issues, I avoid Malaysian Airlines. ;-)
