List of documents required for FRRO registration:

The triple-entry Indian medical visa issued to international patients spans for one year. Therefore, patients and attendants can visit India thrice with the same visa until the validity is over.
The validity period of the visa is calculated from the date of issue. The patient can choose to visit the country anytime during this period.
If the patient requires an extended stay in India due to medical reasons like a longer recovery period or additional treatment, they can apply for a visa extension.
The Visa extension will be approved and granted by the Ministry of Home Affairs on recommendation from State Government/Foreign Regional Registration Office (FRRO). The patient has to submit essential documents stating and confirming the reason for their stay.
