Limits of the record
  • The captured page confirms the two-attendant quota but does not establish qualifying family relationship or duration linkage; independent review remains pending.

How long can the patient stay, what happens if treatment continues longer, and what official extension or follow-up mechanism exists?

The official e-Visa portal gives e-Medical applicants a window from at least four days before arrival to 120 days in advance. Its e-Medical category table displays one year from arrival with multiple entries, while its FAQ states 60 days from first arrival with multiple entry during the visa validity stamped in the passport. The two published duration statements remain unresolved. The portal states the general e-Visa rule that it is non-extendable and non-convertible.

See recorded sources
Limits of the record
  • The same official portal contains unreconciled one-year and 60-day duration wording; a definitive permitted stay and any specific exception to the general no-extension rule are not demonstrated by this capture. The visa issued to an individual must be checked.

These are the answers currently recorded in the catalogue. A missing or partial answer is not an eligibility decision.
