India mandates online Air Suvidha form before deboarding Ebola-affected-country travelers
India
Starting June 25, 2026, anyone flying to India from or transiting through an Ebola-affected country now has to fill out the Air Suvidha Self-Declaration Form online before deboarding.
This replaces the old paper forms and aims to make health checks faster and safer, especially after WHO declared Ebola a public health emergency of international concern.
