The Indian government has enacted a curfew to help prevent the spread of coronavirus (COVID-19), effective from March 24 through April 15, 2020. While the exact requirements of the curfew are still unclear, the country has currently banned leaving one’s home. US citizens in India are required to comply with Indian law and should shelter in place.
The US Mission to India is working with the US Department of State and airline companies to clear flights from India to the United States for US citizens.
US citizens in India should consider applying for the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) to receive updates on flight opportunities from India to the US.
