What is India Landing and Overflight Permit (Flight Permit)

Flight Permit means any permit required by any airport or governmental authorities to perform the relevant Flight, mainly with regard to transportation rights and airport slots.

Each country has its own set of rules, regulations and procedures for permits to aircraft wishing for landing or even entering their air space, whether you’re operating a private, charter flight, scheduled or non-scheduled operation, passengers or cargo trip, a technical or traffic landing, Prior Permission is mandatory required the application procedures requiring complete flight information and Aircraft documents.


According to India CAA AIP any aircraft owner/operator wants to fly in India airspace request has to submit for India overflight clearance to air transport department at least 24 working hours prior from flight departure schedule. 



Required Details for Obtaining India Permit


1 - Complete Flight Schedule
2 - Entry / Exit Points with ATC Route

3- Crew Gendec

4 - Lead Passenger Details or Passenger manifest (Only for Passenger flight)
5 - Consignee & Consigner Details for Cargo Flights
6 - Aircraft Documents [ AOC, COA, COI, CON, COR]


India landing and overflight permit requirements


As per India CAA (Directorate General of Civil Aviation) All aircraft traveling to India require landing permits, regardless of the type of flight. Permit lead time is 3 (72 hrs)  business days for landing at destination stops and 1 (24 hrs) business day for overflight or technical stops, including fuel uplift and crew rest. 

Please make a note that if you’re arriving from a Prior Reference Country (PRC) — such as China, Iran, Irag, Nigeria, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, Sudan — landing permits take seven business days  and overflight permits require three business days to process.

In cases of air ambulance operations, lead times may range from three to four hours during business hours and six to seven hours during nights/weekends/holidays. Air ambulance operators must provide some details such as the name of the patient, the hospital where the patient will be treated (or is coming from), as well as the name of the doctor treating the patient.


Permit requirements

Information and documentation requirements are the same for private non-revenue and charter (non-scheduled commercial) flights. The only difference is that private non-revenue flights may have no more than 14 passengers onboard while charter operations do not have this limitation. However, if the number of passengers onboard a charter operation exceeds 14, a special clearance from the Ministry of Tourism is needed to operate as it’s considered a tourist charter flight. Operators must provide complete aircraft information and schedule—together with full passenger/crew details including passport numbers, expiration dates and visa information and the flight routing. If a passenger does not have a required visa you’ll need to let DGCA know that it’s been applied for and that details will be provided later. As cabotage remains a large issue in India, DGCA needs to know accurate passenger count for each leg. On day of operation, air traffic control (ATC) will check that the passenger/crew counts match what was approved on the permit. If there’s a discrepancy your flight plan will not be accepted, and both pilot in command and the ground handler will need to communicate with ATC to clear the situation.

Permit related charges

DGCA does not charge a fee for landing or overflight permits. Your ground handler or representative, however, usually invoices a permit facilitation fee. Navigation charges for overflying India are billed to operators at a later date. However, if you overfly and land in India, you’ll need to settle navigation charges at the airport, and the ground handler can assist you with this.

Who Will Issue India Overflight Permits :

Directorate General of Civil Aviation Indian

Postal Address : Directorate General of Civil Aviation DGCA Complex Rajiv Gandhi Bhawan, New Delhi, India
