Chile Launches Expedited Business Visa for Indian Nationals

Key Point 

• Chile has introduced a new expedited business visa for Indian nationals to support increased trade and investment between the two countries. 

Expedited Business Visa 

On May 13, 2026, Chile’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced a new expedited business visa for Indian nationals. The initiative is intended to strengthen commercial ties and facilitate easier business travel between the two countries. 

Visa Validity and Travel 

• The visa is valid for two years 
• Allows multiple entries 
• Permits stays of up to 90 days per visit 

Processing Improvements 

The Ministry states that it will process the visa more quickly and with fewer administrative requirements, although it has not yet released detailed processing timelines.

Permitted Activities 

Activities allowed under the expedited visa remain the same as Chile’s regular business visa category. Foreign nationals planning to perform any work activities beyond business‑related functions must obtain the appropriate short‑term work authorization.
