Modified on: Thu, 13 Aug, 2026 at 11:43 AM
The Government of India has introduced new requirements for entry to airport terminals. This is mandatory for all passengers departing from Indian airports and applies to both domestic and international flights.
What you need to know before arriving at the airport:
- Mandatory 2D barcode: To gain access to the terminal, you must present a ticket or boarding pass with a scannable 2D barcode. You will not be allowed inside without it.
- Where to find it: The 2D barcode is located on your boarding pass or your ticket.
Please have it ready, with the barcode visible, before you enter the building to ensure a smooth start to your journey.
