Following recent hostilities in Jammu and Kashmir and border areas with Pakistan a ceasefire has come into effect. We recommend you monitor local media, take official warnings seriously and follow the advice of local authorities.

Airports across northern and western India have reopened for flight operations. Check flight times with your airline well in advance of your flight and allow extra time for heightened security checks in place.

We continue to advise do not travel to the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir, the entire India-Pakistan border area, and Manipur. This doesn’t apply to the Union Territory of Ladakh. India has closed the Attari border crossing with Pakistan.

We advise:

Exercise a high degree of caution in India overall due to the threat of terrorism and crime and the risk of civil unrest.

Higher levels apply in some areas.
