India has introduced AIR SUVIDHA 2.0, a new digital health screening system for all international passengers arriving in India. The initiative was launched by the Ministry of Civil Aviation, in partnership with Delhi International Airport Limited (DIAL) and the Directorate General of Health Services (DGHS), following the ongoing Ebola outbreak in Central Africa.
From June 25, 2026, every international traveler flying to India must complete the Air Suvidha Health Self-Declaration Form online within 24 hours before departure.
If you’re planning to travel to India, here’s everything you need to know.
