For Visits in Person
PAP (Protected Area Permit) is required for all visitors.
Any person wishing to visit The Bylakuppe Camp area must apply for (and get) a PROTECTED AREA PERMIT (PAP) from the Government of India, New Delhi.
Else you CANNOT VISIT OTHER THAN OVER DAY. Under certain circumstances you may even not be allowed in. Completed PAP Application Form with four passport size photos and copy of your passport must be submitted to the concerned Indian Office four to five months prior to the actual traveling date.
PAP Application Forms can be had by sending us an e-mail with your request.
We will help forward your application to concerned Indian Government Office in New Delhi.
Please be advised that the PAP may require even longer processing time, when there are many requests. Also there is a small cost for getting this application processed.
Upon landing in the Bylakuppe Camp area, you must then proceed to have the papers verified and stamped by the local police officiant. You may need additional 2-4 passport size photos.
Also, you need a valid passport and a regular Indian Tourist Visa.
