Students who are going abroad to study MBBS are very keen to know about the procedure of immigration and airport clearance. As most of  the students are travelling abroad for the very first time and their longway journey is the first hurdle in front of them.

Firstly , it is suggested that students should be calm and they should not panic in any situation while travelling.

Following below are the steps in which you can clear your immigration easily.

Make sure that you carry your complete documents with you in your hand bag like 

 

  1. PASSPORT 
  2. ADMISSION LETTER
  3. TICKET  ( these are the documents which can be asked at anytime during your immigration process ) 

 

Step 1 - At first when you reach the airport,  the guard will check your passport and your ticket at the main entrance ( Your passport should be valid and you must have the air ticket of the same day you went to the airport  ) .

 After complete verification, the guard will allow you to go inside the airport perimeter.

 

Step 2-  You need to check the counter of your airline (Airline in which you have booked your ticket “ All the airlines have different counters for check-in ”) and there you need to check-in.

Once you reach your counter the first thing is your luggage weight . Make sure , you must carry up to the weight mentioned in the ticket or else you need to pay a huge amount for the extra weight you want to carry. 

 

LUGGAGE and CABIN bags are two different bags . While getting your boarding pass you need to weigh your luggage bag and later for the cabin bag you need to check in once you will clear your immigration.

 

ONLINE CHECK IN OFFLINE CHECK IN 
You can check in online  from your home and can get boarding 

You must be present inside airport and 

All the process will be done in offline mode 

 

 

When you are done with luggage weight then the counter person will provide you Boarding pass. 

 

Students should keep in mind there is a slight difference in a few cases while getting your boarding pass. 

 

 

BOARDING PASS AT ONCEBOARDING PASS TWICE

If you have a connecting flight , it might be possible that you will have only one boarding pass till your final destination.

E.g If you are travelling from Delhi to Moscow ( Russia ) through a connecting flight . Then you will have a single boarding pass till your destination.

Some of the countries and airlines required 

Twice boarding pass.

E.g If you are travelling from Delhi to Moscow ( Russia ) through a connecting flight and your halt is at Dubai (UAE). Then at first the airline will provide you with a boarding pass till Dubai and there you need to check in again with your luggage to board the connecting flight.

 

 

 

 

 

Step 3 - You need to take your boarding pass and move forward towards IMMIGRATION DEPARTMENT. ( Airport  boarding  authority will allot a seat for you along with mentioning your final destination in the same  )

 

Step 4 - It is the most typical stage for few students as the Immigration department is a little bit tough sometimes .

At Immigration the very first thing they will ask you to show your passport , visa and in few cases admission letter as well. 

If they have any doubt on any students then a few questions related to your visa might be raised by the officers and if you give answers calmly and correctly then you can clear your immigration easily. 

  Once you will clear your immigration then they will put a stamp on your visa and ask you to move further.

 

Step 5-  After immigration clearance you reach the check in counter ( this time for  your cabin bag ). Make  sure you have a cabin bag with weight mentioned in your ticket or else you have to throw your belonginnings . 

 

 

After all the steps you will be  at Duty - free from where you can easily take any item you want because these items will not be included in luggage weight. 

Step 6- Here you need to sit for at least half an hour near the counter of your airline. You will hear an announcement that you can board your flight and you are ready to fly to your destination.
