India to Expand Foreigners Registration Offices to All State Capitals by 2027
The Indian government plans to establish Foreigners Regional Registration Offices (FRROs) in all State capitals by 2027 to improve access to immigration and consular services amid rising foreign visitors. Since 2025, five new FRROs have been set up, including locations in Jaipur, Chandigarh, Guwahati, Aizawl, and Amravati. Recently, offices in Kohima, Agartala, and Bhubaneswar were notified, raising the total to 20. The expansion aims to enhance regulatory compliance and promote India as a destination for tourism, medical treatment, and education.
