International passengers departing from India will no longer need to get their boarding passes stamped at immigration counters from September 1. The Bureau of Immigration has introduced the change as part of an effort to make immigration clearance faster and more convenient for travellers.
The Bureau of Immigration (BoI) on Monday announced that international travellers can use e-boarding passes displayed on their smartphones during immigration clearance at Indian airports beginning September 1, as the procedure of physically stamping these documents has been eliminated.
