Practical checklist for overseas Indian workers and travellers
Before travel or accepting a job offer, use the official government and Indian mission resources linked on this page to confirm the latest rules. This checklist is general guidance, not a substitute for country-specific legal or immigration advice.
- Check the employer and recruiter: Verify the offer, job title, salary, contract and recruiting agency through appropriate official channels. Be cautious about requests to pay large upfront fees.
- Confirm the correct visa or work authorization: Do not assume a tourist or visit visa permits employment. Check the host government’s published requirements.
- Keep essential documents: Retain secure copies of your passport, visa, signed employment contract, insurance information and emergency contacts.
- Find consular assistance: Save the contact details of the relevant Indian embassy or consulate from the Ministry of External Affairs’ official mission directory.
- Protect personal information: Avoid sharing passport scans, one-time passwords or banking details with unverified intermediaries.
