Kate, this appears to be the 'official' Indian web-site and I know the advice is always to got through any country's 'official' web-site to avoid the money makers and/or scammers

I use the US Immigration service frequently and the cost is a fraction of other sites that offer the service for a very inflated price and can be a lot slower than the 'official' service

Phew!! Thanks, I got worried because there are so many sites out there selling visas and then I watched something on tv where a lady had travelled to India only to find that she didn't have the correct visa. Can't be travelling all that way only to be told no entry! :shock:
