Central Asia is the cheapest cluster, and the least obvious

Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan take four of the five cheapest spots on this entire list, all under ₹65k. None of them show up on typical "easy visa" content aimed at an Indian audience, but the flights are short and the visa fee is the same flat ₹5.7k as everywhere else on this list.

The Gulf and Caucasus hold the next tier

Oman, Georgia, Egypt and Armenia sit between ₹58k and ₹77k. Oman is the standout here: a short Gulf flight keeps the total close to the Central Asia cluster despite being a very different kind of trip.

Long-haul eVisa: Japan, South Korea, Australia

These three don't appear at all on a tighter budget (see the ₹1 lakh pillar post), but they're genuinely eVisa, not embassy, destinations. Japan and South Korea land within ₹5k of each other around ₹103 to 108k; Australia (Cairns) is close behind at ₹125k. All three are the same eVisa process as Vietnam or Georgia, just a longer flight.

Africa has the widest range on this list

Kenya, Uganda, Zambia, Morocco and South Africa span ₹90k to ₹123k, and all are eVisa only. Kenya's visa fee is slightly lower than the rest (₹4.3k vs ₹5.7k), which is part of why Mombasa edges out Uganda despite a similar flight cost.

What didn't make the table

This list shows 19 of the 30 eVisa-only countries in Locovise's data, picked for spread. Also eVisa but not shown above: Moldova, Malawi, Mozambique, Nigeria, Ivory Coast, Papua New Guinea, Botswana, Ecuador, and the Bahamas, all in the ₹95k to ₹185k range. The destination hub has the complete, current list.

What this list doesn't include

Visa-free and visa-on-arrival countries aren't counted here, even where they're cheaper than some eVisa options above. This is specifically the eVisa-only category: apply online, no embassy, no arrival counter either.

FAQ

Is this every eVisa country for an Indian passport? These are the ones with curated cost data in Locovise's engine. The real list of eVisa-eligible countries for Indian passports is longer; this one is priced.

Why do Central Asian countries rank so low in cost? Short flights from India and the same flat eVisa fee as everywhere else on this list. Distance is doing almost all the work.
