Frequently asked questions

Which countries are easiest for vegetarians from India?
Dubai, Singapore, Malaysia, Mauritius, the UK and Thailand's tourist hubs make vegetarian eating easy, with plenty of Indian restaurants. Japan, Korea and parts of Central Asia take more planning.
Can I carry Indian food when travelling abroad?
Dry snacks, theplas, khakhras and sealed packaged foods are usually fine. Australia and New Zealand strictly control food imports — declare everything. Avoid meat, dairy and fresh produce in your bags.
