The Project Visa is a specific, non-extendable (in terms of changing employers) visa for highly skilled foreign nationals coming to India to execute projects in the power and steel sectors.
The Project Visa is a highly specialized category restricted to skilled professionals working on power and steel sector projects in India. It is strictly tied to the project site and the sponsoring Indian company, prohibiting any other employment. Due to the nature of these projects, applications undergo rigorous case-by-case scrutiny by government authorities.
