On January 16, 2025, Union Home Minister and Minister of Cooperation Amit Shah launched the ‘Fast Track Immigration – Trusted Traveller Programme’ (FTI-TTP) from Ahmedabad, expanding seamless immigration clearance to major airports in Mumbai, Chennai, Kolkata, Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Cochin. This significant advancement means that Indian citizens and OCI cardholders can navigate immigration processes with unparalleled ease at these seven key locations. According to the government, it is aimed at making international travel easy and secure. As the programme rolls out to a total of 21 major airports nationwide, it ensures that all travelers can enjoy a smoother, more efficient journey. This initiative builds on the successful launch of FTI-TTP in June 2024 at Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) in New Delhi, showcasing the government’s commitment to enhancing travel experiences across India.
