NoOn 1 June 2012, the Indian Ministry of Home Affairs simplified visa regulations for some foreigners:
- CEOs and other senior executives of US companies in India may now be granted employment visas for a period of three years. Previously, excecutives could only receive employment visas for at most two years (with an exception in the IT sector, where three-year employment visas were granted even before under certain conditions).
- Chinese nationals married to Indian nationals may now be authorized to work in India for one year after converting their visa into an employment visa (category E). Previously, those Chinese nationals were generally holding an X entry visa without any right to work in India.
