CzechTourism reported a 12.38% increase in Indian visitor arrivals for 2025, a development announced during the ITB Berlin travel fair www.visahq.com. This growth is primarily linked to enhanced Schengen visa processing efficiency in New Delhi, where reduced appointment lead times have facilitated easier travel for Indian nationals. Furthermore, an increase in air capacity has improved connectivity, supporting the rise in arrivals as the Czech Republic becomes a more prominent destination within the Schengen Areawww.visitczechia.com.

Visitors from India are increasingly venturing beyond the capital city of Prague to explore regional attractions such as the wine routes in South Moravia and the spa towns of West Bohemia. CzechTourism’s promotional efforts are designed to highlight these multi-regional destinations to ensure broader economic benefits across the country. Projections indicate that if current improvements in visa processing and flight availability persist, Indian visitor numbers could surpass 100,000 by 2026.
