## Overview

VFS Global India (visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/sur) handles only Suriname passport services, not visas. Suriname visas are applied for entirely online via the official VFS Global eVisa portal (suriname.vfsevisa.com), the 'Official and Authorized partner for the Government of the Republic of Suriname / Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Business and Cooperation'; a mobile E-visa app was launched on 30 April 2025. India appears on the portal's 'eVisa Country List' (Tourist / Business / Transit / Short Stay, 90 Days; visa exemption only for Diplomatic, Service and Official passports), so Indian ordinary passport holders apply for an eVisa rather than the Entry Fee. Steps: upload passport bio page (OCR), complete online form and upload documents, pay the fee; approved eVisas are emailed.
