As India is one of the main destinations for medical-related travel, India has allowed the issuance of medical visas to Maldivians despite the country’s international borders being closed.
An air bubble has been established between the two nations to allow Indian travelers to visit the Maldives, and for Maldivians to seek medical treatment in India.
