Entry Formalities

Foreign nationals allowed to enter India do not need any special permission to visit Orissa. However, considering the sensitivity of some tribes, special permission is needed to visit certain tribal areas and National Parks which can be organized by the tour operators. In some temples, non- Hindus are not allowed to enter, while the government has levied entry fee to visit some important ancient monuments. The State Museum and Nandankanan collect entry fees and these remain closed on Mondays.
