Volunteers must secure a visa before departing for India. Volunteers can apply for tourist visas from the Indian Embassy or Consular Office in their home countries. If volunteers plan to visit a neighboring country such as Nepal, later re-entering India, a double/multiple entry Visa should be obtained.
In an effort to prevent international child abduction, many governments have initiated procedures at entry/exit points. These procedure often include requiring documentary evidence of relationship and permission for the child's travel from the absent parent(s) or legal guardian. If you are traveling with a minor, having such documentation on hand, even if not required, may better facilitate entry/departure.
