UPI and RuPay aren't live here yet — carry an international debit/credit card and some local cash for small spends.
Acceptance changes as NPCI adds corridors — confirm at the point of sale.
Forex card, cash & cards — the cheapest ways to spend
Load ₹ into USD/EUR before you flyat a locked rate — no ~3.5% card markup, works at ATMs & shops. MNT usually isn't loadable, so carry a USD/EUR card and withdraw MNT locally.
Buy MNT or USD from an authorised dealer in India (your bank, BookMyForex) before travel — it beats airport rates. Abroad, use bank ATMs and skip airport exchange counters.

What Raahi used, when it was last refreshed, and what it cannot promise
Source data supports Raahi’s recommendations; it does not replace the destination’s immigration authority, airline or live booking provider.
Raahi presents visa and entry information for the Indian passport compiled from public datasets. This is general information for planning, not legal or immigration advice.
Visa rules, fees, and processing times change frequently and without notice, and the underlying data can be outdated, incomplete, or wrong. Requirements also depend on your specific situation — purpose of travel, length of stay, past travel history, and connecting/transit countries.
Before you book or travel, always confirmwith the destination country's official embassy, consulate, or immigration website, and with your airline. Raahi holds no responsibility for travel decisions made using this information.
Simplest — keep your number. Activate an international-roaming pack before you leave India (activating abroad is costlier).
Carrier names are a guide; check current tourist plans and coverage before you buy.
Visa/Mastercard are widely accepted, but your normal card adds ~3.5% forex markup plus ATM fees — a forex card avoids both. See Pay like home above for UPI/RuPay where it works.
Under RBI’s LRS you can carry forex within limits; large forex loads attract TCS — check current rules & rates before you buy.

Mongolia offers a stark, open‑air experience very different from India’s urban bustle, but its nomadic hospitality feels welcoming to Indian visitors. The country’s simple, friendly locals and shared respect for tradition make many Indian travelers feel at home.
Indian community

Veg / Jain food
Vegetarian options are limited; many locals eat meat‑heavy meals, but you can find simple vegetable dishes in guesthouses and some restaurants.
Indian food
Indian restaurants are scarce; you’ll find spices and basic staples in Ulan Bator’s larger supermarkets, and some expatriate markets in the city.
Places of worship
A few small Hindu temples and a Sikh gurdwara exist in Ulan Bator, and a modest mosque serves the Muslim community.
Overall safety is high; petty theft is uncommon and violence is rare.
